What is Rescuing Nelson about?

Nelson, a young elephant, gets himself into trouble when he becomes stuck in a deep, muddy pool. He struggles to climb out, but the slippery mud makes escape difficult.

This gentle adventure shows how family members look after one another and how even a frightening problem can be solved with courage and support.
