Story
The baby animals in the Indian forest are going to bed. But instead of clear skies and twinkling stars, they can see a thunderstorm. They are frightened and can’t get to sleep, so Mama Elephant comes to comfort them. She tells them that the wind is their friend, and that it, along with thunder and lightning, are nothing to be scared of, and they soon drift off to sleep, not afraid anymore.
