“Heyyyyyy! My name is Hau (you say it like, "How") and English is not my first language. Or my second, or my third. Seymour thinks I’m funny, and he’s right.  I’m super funny.  I’m so funny I forgot to laugh! I heard dat on TV and I have NO IDEA what it means. I love food so much and I EXPECHALLY, wait, wait, ESPECIALLY, love Indian, Chinese, Moroccan, French, Italian, Cuban, Portuguese, Nigerian, Turkish, English, Russian, Mongolian, ummmm, and a whole bunch more but Seymour said I had to wrap it up here.  I also like wraps, in case you wanted to get me a surprise someday."

Hau, a sweet, slimy and slightly smelly creature from another world, is a lovable klutz with large feet and a cosmic curiosity. This round squashy little guy is always hungry and his quest to fill his belly can lead to trouble. Though he speaks and acts with child-like innocence, his wisdom comes through when he saves the day.

Hau says, "I have a cool pouch, like a kangaroo, except it’s magic and can fit a whole raft, plus tons of other things.  I love leaping around the world to help kids 'cause we need to make friends and help each other.  That’s my thing.  Aside from eating.

I can’t understand why, but Seymour can not understand animals when they talk.  He says they just sound like "Mooooo, Mehhhhh, Meeoowww, Rufff".  But, I can understand them perfecto! It comes in handy, A LOT!

We gotta go, the TELLUS is buzzing…see you there! Adios, Ciao, Totsiens, Cheerio,  Au Revoir, Shalom, Aloha, Sjáumst síðar, Arrivederci, and Bon Voyage. And also, Check ya later, Dudes!”

But how did Hau get here? We will tell you more about that soon!
