The bird AND THE ELEPHANT

One day a colourful bird saw a young elephant. There weren't any other elephants around, and the elephant was lonely and upset. Suddenly the bird knew what the problem was. The elephant was lost. The bird flew high into the sky and looked for the other elephants. The bird saw them near a river and went back to the young elephant. 'Come with me!' the bird said. The bird flew in front and the elephant followed. Finally, the elephant joined the others near the river and the bird left.

Twenty years later, the elephant was in a different part of the jungle and saw a man with a bird in his net. The bird was old, but was still beautiful and colourful. Suddenly, the elephant recognized the bird. The elephant ran towards the man and made a loud noise. The man dropped the net in surprise and the bird was free. 'Why did you help me?' the bird asked. 'Because I never forget my friends,' said the elephant.
