Translated by Joan Sandin.
Three little hippos enjoy swimming at the riverbank, but they wish they could go to Tall Cliff. They finally get permission and make a trip to the cliff, but on their return home, the hungry hippos forget to watch out for trouble. Luckily, Mrs. Hippopotamus is there to watch out for them. The expressive illustrations add humor to the flat text.
