George the Elephant was best friend with all the birds of the air. One day, he decided he wanted to fly. So he begged and pleaded for the birds to help him do just that. The birds tied ropes around him and he got to fly through the air. But the birds grew ever so tired and within moments, he came crashing to the ground. The birds wanted to be an elephant, so he took turns teaching them each how to make elephant noises. But he couldn't teach them how to have a long memory, that's just for him!
