The original hippo stories on television was with Harvest Time in Japan (Nakagawa Kenichi).  The 6 original stories went out to approximately 7 million viewers.  This was from Shizuoka, Japan (at the base of Mount Fuji), my ancestral homeland.  The drawing is by one of the manga artists who, without knowing me, said, "You are from a samurai family."  Turns out she was correct.  (smile)

It has also been published in English, Chinese, Dutch Afrikaans, and Arabic.  The links are in this blog.

In addition, I was able to tell about the hippo stories on Canadian television.
