The+Ant+and+the+Elephant



The main characters are the Ant and the Elephant,but there is also a turtle,a hornbill,a giraffe,a lion,and a rhino. The setting is in a jungle by a river.In the story there is a ant that is stuck and asks a turtle for help ,but the turtle says no.Then the turtle gets flipped over and asks the hornbill for help but the hornbill says no.Then the hornbill looses his egg and asks the giraffe for help but the giraffe says no.Then the giraffe gets stuck and asks the lion for help but the lion says no.Then a rock falls on the lion and asks the rhino for help but the rhino says no. The conclusion is when the elephant passes by.Then the elephant helps everybody with there troubles.Then the elephant gets stuck and calls for help.Then the ant comes by with his friends and gets the elephant unstuck.The authors ending is something to do with the authors purpose. I think the authors purpose is about reading stories about people killing elephants in Africa.The message is if you help someone you might get help back.I like the story because it has a turtle and a elephant in it [they are 2 of my favorite animals]and because its very cool.
