This pleasingly straight-forward story tells of a mouse called Hippu who invites a homeless dog to share with him the simple pleasures of everyday life. Portrayed through bold, graphic colours and cut-out shapes Hippu feels as fresh and contemporary today as it did on first publication in 1967. Written and illustrated by one of Finland's most cherished artists, and translated here for the first time in English, Hippu is destined to become a classic worldwide.
