Description

Elephants didn't always have long trunks - that is, until one day when the elephant's child could contain his curiosity no longer, stepping closer than he should have to Crocodile... A charming, illustrated retelling of one of Rudyard Kipling's Just So Stories, specially rewritten for children who are learning to read. With puzzles and answers at the back of the book.
