NE morning Little Elephant woke up and he didn't feel very well. So he got out of bed and galumphed into his mother's room, and he said, "Oh, Mama, I feel so sick!"

His mother was snoring and she didn't hear him. So he raised up his trunk and he bellowed, "Oh, Mama! I feel so sick!" And then she heard him. And she jumped out of bed in her long flannel nightgown.

"What, Little Elephant! You feel sick?" she cried.

"Yes, I feel drefful sick!" And his eyes were all criss-crossed because he had an awful pain.

"Where do you feel sick?" asked his mother. 5
