He wondered, so he went closer to see the event. A pangolin was

elephant cried so

climb up to ride on its back, and then they went away happily. Many
elephants acknowledged
this good deed of Uncle
Sam. It took them quite
long time to arrive at
the place where

When arriving home, Uncle Sam showed the elephant tusks to his
wife. When a passer-by saw and got interested in the tusks, he
