About This Book
A stuffed toy elephant comes to life after shop hours and shares playful companionship with other make-believe toys, then travels with children through a series of seasonal adventures. After being purchased and carried to an attic and later a barn, the elephant survives mishaps including a hoisting-rope accident, a slippery hay slide, encounters with farm animals and a bobbing journey on a rain-swollen brook. The tale combines episodes of peril and resourceful rescue with gentle humor and warmth, emphasizing imaginative play, loyalty between toys and children, and the everyday wonder of childhood possessions.
