Once upon a time, in a vast forest, there lived a jumbo elephant who was known for his large size. He had an enormous appetite and ate a multitude of plants every day. One day, he stumbled upon a tree with oversized fruit. The fruit was so massive that the elephant couldn't finish it in one day. He stored it in a gargantuan pile and ate from it for numerous days. The pile became so extensive that it attracted the attention of other animals in the forest. They all gathered around to marvel at the giant fruit pile and the large elephant who had collected it. The end.

Reflections

1. Why did the elephant have a large appetite?
2. What did the other animals do when they saw the giant fruit pile?
3. How did the elephant feel about the attention he received from the other animals?
4. Can you think of another animal that might have an enormous size?
5. How do you think the forest would look if all the trees had jumbo fruit like the one in the story?
