Harry Hippo awoke early one morning.
Harry moaned and groaned.
He moaned and groaned so loudly he woke everyone up.

“Why is Harry moaning and groaning so loudly?”
“What is wrong?” they asked.
“Harry has a toothache,” said his wife, Harriet.

“What shall we do?” asked Polly the Parrot.
“We will have to pull out the tooth,” said Harriet.
“But who will pull it out?” asked Polly.

“But how will you pull it out?” asked Ziggy the Lion.
“I will,” said Milly the Gorilla.
Milly went off to find a vine.
She tied the vine to Harry’s tooth, and she pulled on the vine.
She pulled and pulled, but the tooth did not come out.

“What will we do now?” asked Polly.
So Ziggy and Milly pulled, but the tooth did not come out.
“Let me help,” said Ziggy.
“I have an idea,” said Milly.
They took Harry to a cliff and tied the vine to a big rock.

But Harry’s tooth did not come out.
They pushed the rock over the cliff.
Later, Polly came back with Ella the Elephant.
“Ella will help us pull Harry’s tooth,” said Polly.
They tied the vine to Ella.
She pulled and pulled, but still the tooth did not come out.

Harry moaned and groaned even louder.
“I have a better idea,” said Polly, and she flew off.
“Now what?” asked Ziggy.
Out came Harry’s tooth.
Harry stopped moaning and groaning.
Once again the jungle was quiet.
Everyone was happy, especially Harry.

Ella saw the mouse and took off running very fast.
Then out of the jungle crept a mouse.
