About This Book

Is there a way to cure a hippopotamus of a really bad case of the hiccups? Maybe. Just be very careful. That's what a centipede and an elephant learn when they meet a hippopotamus hiccupping uncontrollably in the woods one day.

They try everything: spinning him with licorice, bathing him in vinegar, plopping him into an aquarium—but nothing seems to work! Will they find a remedy? Will it last? Or will the centipede and elephant end up under the hippopotamus's bottomus?
