Synopsis
Once upon a time, Elephant had a tiny, stubby nose and was very smelly because he couldn't wash himself. One day, a grumpy Crocodile snapped onto Elephant's nose and pulled and pulled until—ker-doing!—it stretched into a long, wiggly trunk. Now, Elephant can swat flies, scrub his belly, and trumpet loudly across Tinga Tinga!
