Once upon a time, there was a big elephant named Ellie who lived in the jungle. She had a trunk so long that she could reach anything she wanted with it. One day, while exploring the jungle, she found a pile of junk lying on the ground. She got curious and started to rummage through it. Suddenly, she found a funky hat and put it on her head.

As she was walking, she stumbled upon a bunk bed that was occupied by a sleeping skunk. Ellie didn't want to wake him up but she couldn't resist jumping on the bunk bed. Suddenly, she flunked and sunk into the soft mattress. The skunk woke up, took a chunk of the mattress and disappeared into the jungle, leaving Ellie stuck in the bed.

Ellie tried to escape from the bed, but it was no use. She started to get worried that she might never get out. But then, she remembered her trunk and used it to push herself out of the bed. She danced and sang a funky tune as she walked back to her home in the jungle.

From that day on, Ellie always remembered to be careful in the jungle, and to use her trunk to help her in times of need.

The end!
