A child became lost in a forest and started to cry.
An elephant passing by saw him and asked, "Child, why are you crying?"
"I've lost my mother," the child replied.
"Don't cry. I'll stay with you until you find your mother," the elephant comforted him.
The elephant gently picked the child up. "Oh! My body is going up in the air. Wow! This is fun!" the child exclaimed.
After placing the child on his back, the elephant heard, "Elephant, I want to go down now."
"Ha, ha! Wow! Your trunk is like a slide!" the child laughed. "This time, it's like a swing. This is so much fun!"
"Elephant, your ears are like cymbals. Cling! Ha, ha! How fun it is!"
"Let's sing a song," the child suggested, and sang, "Hickory dickory dock! The mouse ran up the clock! The clock struck one, the mouse ran down! Hickory dickory dock! Cling!"
Suddenly, the child shouted, "Uh? There's my mother. Mother, here I am!"
Turning to the elephant, the child said, "Thank you, elephant. I had a good time. If we meet again, let's play together some more."
The elephant was happy that the child enjoyed his company and was even happier that the child had found his mother.
