​

Anna lives in Wuppertal, a city where a spectacular suspended monorail runs.

One evening, during dinner, she hears at the radio that Tuffi, the elephant from the circus had been embarked on the train to announce the show... The elephant apparently did not enjoy the ride - he trumpeted wildly and ran

through the wagon, broke through a window and fell down into the river below.

Anna decides to accompany Tuffi to the boat that will bring him back at home. This picture book is inspired by a true story that happened in 1950 at Wuppertal in Germany
