Winter 1971

Thomas is a sly little bird with an unusual home: the enormous mouth of Hyppo, a gentle hippopotamus who tolerates his freeloading companion's constant schemes. Thomas likes to act superior and repeatedly tries to outwit his simple host, only for their plans and arguments to spiral into comic trouble.For all their bickering, the mismatched pair depend on one another. Their friendship survives every trick and quarrel, turning each tiny conflict into another strange adventure they ultimately face together.
