In this beautifully illustrated story, you can join Steff, the only baby elephant in his herd, as he embarks on his first adventure in the grasslands that surround his home. Eager to explore and find playmates, Steff makes a friend along the way with whom he has nothing-and yet everything-in common. He meets a young snake that looks exactly like his trunk, and so Steff thinks he is looking at a baby elephant trunk that has lost its head and body. Together, the two set out to find the supposed baby elephant's body, discovering the diversity of their natural surroundings and their own ability to develop a close friendship despite their very different origins.
