Saggy Baggy Elephant

Written by Kathryn Jackson and Byron Jackson and Illustrated by Gustaf Tenggren
Sooki was a carefree elephant who enjoyed dancing in the jungle, until a parrot came along and started teasing him because his ears were too big, his skin was too loose, and his nose was too long. He tried to hide and change himself, until one day he met other elephants and realized he's happy just the way he is.
