What is The elephant's child about?

The Elephant’s Child is full of questions, and he wants to know everything about the world around him. Most of all, he wonders what the Crocodile eats for dinner. His curiosity leads him on a dangerous journey to the muddy Limpopo River, where he discovers that the answer may be closer—and more surprising—than he imagined. With help from a very unexpected friend, the Elephant’s Child learns how his long trunk came to be.
