When I Woke Up I Was a Hippopotamus RRP £5.99

Synopsis

"When I woke up I was a hippopotamus.
Yawning in the morning,
I raised up my sleepy head,
Then took one look out of the window
and got straight back into bed."


A small boy's fantasies about being different creatures get him into all sorts of mischief!
