What is Elephants never jump about?

In a village where animals love surprising one another, shouting “BOO!” and leaping from hiding places, everyone enjoys making someone jump. Then an elephant arrives and calmly announces that elephants never jump—and never forget. The other animals are determined to prove him wrong, trying tricks, masks and noisy surprises, but nothing works. Just when they think he cannot be startled, an unexpected event catches him off guard. This playful story ends with a wonderfully funny reminder that even elephants can forget.
