Description: In this colorful retelling of an African folk tale, Elephant starts out with a short nose and no sense of smell, making him smelly and unhappy. When Crocodile snaps onto Elephant’s nose at the waterhole, the other animals rush to help, and Elephant’s nose is stretched into a long, wiggly trunk. Rather than being upset, Elephant is thrilled to finally swat flies and take big showers! The story’s vibrant illustrations, animal sounds, and gentle humor teach children about honesty, friendship, and how good things can come from unexpected events. It’s a delightful introduction to folklore and animal stories.
