This picture book is about a young girl's
imaginary friend who always understands her and how she feels. The idea of a
hippopotamus living on the roof is ridiculous, but I think it is a good example
of the way young children make things up to identify with other things that they don't
understand, like their Mummy’s diet, being smacked by Daddy, or feeling like
they have no friends.
