Review

Hippo has a toothache and raises a ruckus. This brings all his animal friends to his side but they don’t understand what’s wrong with him. So what will they do to help him? Read the story to find out. With lots of humourous bits and some comforting repetitive parts in the story, children will be entertained from start till the end. You’ll also love the funny and surprising ending.
