Synopsis: It’s not easy being the smallest elephant in the herd, especially when you have the biggest dream! In the heart of the Amazon Rainforest, there lives a tiny pygmy elephant who longs to leave the forest floor and see the world from up high. In pursuit of his dream, he seeks advice from an orangutan, a black-banded squirrel, and a toucan. Each one of them laugh at his efforts, dismissing his dream. But he doesn’t give up hope! Look inside this narrative poem to see just what happens when this little elephant follows his dream, and eventually realizes he always had the ability to achieve his dreams all on his own, just the way he is.
