TUSK

Tusk is a young elephant who is naturally larger than his other animal friends. When a monkey named Rascal wants to join in on their fun, he criticizes Tusk about his size and awkwardness while playing their physical games. When he gets home, his mother sees how upset Tusk feels. She reminds him about all of the things that he can do. When Tusk seeks out his friends the following day, he winds up helping to prevent a disaster and becomes their hero.  The moral of the story is: “We are all special in our own way.”
