Henry the Smiling Warthog
註釋Henry, a little warthog in Africa, looks different from his friends because he was born with a big smile. His warthog friends make fun of his looks, and refuse to play with him. His only friends are 3 bird brothers. Henry makes up songs to feel better. When a hungry hyena comes along, threatening to eat Henry for his dinner, frightened Henry sings him a song to scare him away. The confused hyena who has never heard a singing warthog, thinks he'd better leave Henry alone, so goes away to find something else to eat. All Henry's warthog friends realize he's saved them, and they decide they should be nice to him. They ask him to make up a new song, and after he sings it, they all go off together to play in their favorite mud hole. This book is about friendship and acceptance; especially for those who might at first seem different.
