That’s a hippopotamus! 
THAT’S NOT THABI! 
Lucy woke up. Her sister
Thabi was not in her bed.

“Where’s Thabi?” Lucy asked Ma. 
“Thabi’s in the
kitchen eating
breakfast.”

“That’s not Thabi!” 
“That’s a hippopotamus!”  

4

“Lucy looked all over the house.”

“Where’s Thabi?” Lucy asked Pa. 
“Thabi’s
swimming
in the pool.”

“That’s not Thabi!”  
“That’s a hippopotamus!”

Lucy kept looking
around the garden.

“Where’s Thabi?”
Lucy asked the
neighbor.
 
“Thabi’s
playing in
the park."

“That’s a
hippopotamus!”
 
“That’s not Thabi!"

Then Lucy heard a
funny noise. She gave
the hippopotamus a
big tickle.

“There’s Thabi. "

“Thanks," said Thabi. “It is very
boring inside a hippopotamus."
