Chapter 1: The Baby Elephant
In the busy circus, animals welcomed their babies one by one. A mother elephant was waiting anxiously for her baby. One day, she finally received a big gift—a baby elephant. The baby elephant was chubby and looked very cute. But when everyone saw him, they opened their eyes wide in surprise. Because this little elephant had an especially big pair of ears. His ears were so big that they almost touched the ground. The mother elephant was surprised, but she was still full of joy. She gently touched her baby, giving him warmth and love. The other elephants began whispering to each other. Some said, “Those ears are too big, so strange!” Others laughed, “He looks like a joke.” Dumbo didn’t understand their words, but he felt something was wrong. His mother stood in front of him, not letting anyone hurt him. Dumbo lifted his head, looking at the world with curious eyes. He didn’t know how he was different from the others. For him, everything was new. He walked a few clumsy steps, his ears dragging on the ground. His mother smiled and encouraged him, “You are so brave.” In his mother’s arms, Dumbo felt very safe. Even though others talked about him, he was still his mother’s treasure. She decided to protect her special child no matter what.
