This story is about bestfriends who spend most of their days together until privacy becomes nonexistent, and they no longer have their private time to themselves which drives a wedge between their friendship. A story that shows it is good to have a bestfriend, but everyone needs their "peace of mind" time to themselves as well. It is not always the best thing to know everything about someone. Overall, it is an entertaining story that I believe students will find enjoyable due to the funny moments such as when pig is eating a ton of donuts in its house and when Hippo is biting on its toenails.

Hippo and Pig live next door to each other and are great friends. They spend majority of their time with each other and enjoy each other's company immensely. One day, Hippo trims the hedges that separate he and Pig's house in an attempt to strengthen their friendship. Inadvertently, this hinders their friendship and Hippo and Pig stop spending time together. Pig realizes how much she misses Hippo and stops by his house for his birthday and the friends look past their lifestyle differences and renew their friendship. ( )

Have you ever heard of the expression, "What you don't know won't hurt you"? Well, this is a cute book describing just that. As soon Hippo cut down that hedge, his friendship with Pig went downhill. How will they fix their friendship? ( )

Pig and Hippo are great friends, they spend Monday through Saturday together.Until Hippo cuts down the tall hedge that hides their homes from each other. They find things out about one another that they didn't know before and it causes some tension between them. After some time apart they miss each other and become friends again. They are even closer than they were before. A story about friendship and how we love our friends even if they are different than we are. k-2 ( )
