Who ever heard of a hippo who didn't swim? Hippo's family all love to swim - but not him. He's afraid of the water. So he sets off to find himself some friends who don't like swimming either. He tries skipping rope with the rabbits, but he's too heavy to jump. He goes on the seesaw, but even seven monkeys aren't enough to lift him off the ground. He can't even climb trees. Eventually he decides to face his fears, and plunges into the lagoon... only to find that in his own element, he is as light as a bird. Hilarious, quirky illustrations bring to life this delightful story about taking the plunge.
