What is Ready, steady, jump! about?

Elephant longs to be like the other baby animals, who can all jump high into the air. When they tease him for staying firmly on the ground, he tries everything he can think of to prove them wrong. But no matter how hard he practises, Elephant simply cannot jump. Just when he feels defeated, he discovers a special talent of his own. With his powerful trunk, Elephant shows that being different can be something wonderful—and even help him become a hero.
