In the charming fable entitled The Lion's Paw, a jungle lion steps on a thorn. Who is brave enough to pull the thorn from the lion's paw? Luckily for the lion, one animal is just brave enough. In the wonderful story of The Saggy Bagay Elephant, a young elephant named Sookie is teased and tormented with the terrible nickname of Saggy Baggy by the other jungle animals. But life becomes a joy for Sookie when he finds his own kind at last and learns to dance through the jungle with a one-two-three kick!
