PSWalt Disney Animation Studios Artist Showcase series.
Holly the hippo bravely rescues her little sister's toy pig from a tree, but she's less assured when it comes to swimming pools. Her dad answers her "what if" questions, and eventually necessity (i.e., rescuing the toy from the pool) helps her overcome her fear of the water. The mainly pink digital illustrations do a thorough job depicting Holly's range of emotions.
