The Mystery Hippo

A curious little duck floats nearby as a friendly hippo takes a cool, splashing bath.

"Hello, Hippo!" said the little brown duck. "Why are you always hiding under the water? Are you hiding a super-secret?"

The big hippo let out a giant "CHORTLE, CHORTLE!"

"Oh, silly duck! I'm not hiding a secret. The sun is just way too hot for me, and I need a cold drink. That's why I'm taking a big, bubbly bath."

The little duck smiled and paddled away. The hippo dunked back under the cool water, safe and sound.
