There’s a Hippopotamus on our Roof Eating Cake

Hazel Edwards

This is a very sweet story about an imaginary hippopotamus who lives on the roof. The hippopotamus does all the things that the little girl in the story wishes she could do, such as watch TV when she has to sleep, and eat large pieces of cake.
