Hugo Holt woke up one day to find his legs had run away.
Without the slightest sigh or fuss they hopped aboard a local bus.
...but in the end poor Hugo wept.
' This,' he wailed, ' is pure disaster. These legs are fast
but the ... bus ... is ... faster! ’
Hippo's legs were way too fat,
Penguin's feet, too wet and flat,
Bear's brown legs were far too slow
and cheetah's legs
refused ... to ... go.
‘Stop! ’
cried Hugo. ‘Stop right there! You're not going anywhere! Not before you tell me why You left without a word goodbye.'
