Author: Mwenye Hadithi was born in Nairobi in a rambling brick and wood house surrounded by ten acres. His early life was full of animals. He attended London University, studying languages and foreign literature. When his first attempts at short stories and radio plays were sold immediately, he decided to be the next great African Writer.

It was on her return to Kenya that she began illustrating the picture books that have made her well known.

I used to read this book as a kid. Now I bought it for my 2 year old niece. She loves it! And owns almost all the other books by this author. Great story and great illustrations!
This is a wonderful book in this author's series of books about how animals acquired various traits. I teach kindergarten and read these stories to my class every year. I highly recommend them. The illustrations are bright and appealing and the stories are humorous and fun to discuss. Also a good complement to Kipling's Just So stories.
Used as an intro to an art lesson. Good book. I can't believe they require a minimum amount of words. Crazy. They want an opinion and then ask for so many words. What are they nuts!
Great story about why the hippo lives in the water.
Wonderful (and educational) story that imagines the reasons hippos behave as they do. Bright, colorful illustrations add to the story.
