Awww, very cute. She must be a fan of hippos and crocodiles. Definitely more exciting than the Winnie the Pooh stories I recall.

Good god, I think she might have worked Animal Farm, the Bible, Just So Stories, Midnight's Children, The Tempest, Lord of the Rings and the Narnia books into a min-epic.

If there's something cuter in the world than that girl saying "crocodile," it might kill me to see it.

Wow! That hippo is a tragic figure! And death even in heaven--this girl knows what's terrifying. Loved her emphasis and her hand gestures.

Brilliant. I see shikuchi liked it; must send it to shikuchi's older sister, too :D

Obviously a budding novelist there! The short story just doesn't have enough scope for all her ideas. Poor hippo. I wonder what had made him so tragic?

She's adorable. I loved her eyes. What a story.
