This song was a top hit in 1953, as recorded by the then ten-year-old Gayla Peevey. The publicity surrounding the song and the child singing star, a native of Oklahoma City, resulted in her being given a real hippopotamus, which she donated to the city zoo! J. Daniel Smith's spectacular, fully orchestrated arrangement captures all the humor and dancing-hippo feel of the original for SATB choirs! Highly recommended!
