Synopsis

If you've ever told a joke you know how much depends on delivery. Here is a joke told and pictured in perfect pitch about a journey into the wilds where elephants live and about the fun of catching one - a process that is utterly logical and utterly nuts. To begin: "3 cakes 2 raisins 1 telescope and a pair of tweezers. That's what you need to catch an elephant". Add to these an intrepid young girl her uncle (the one giving the advice) and an elephant - or yellowphant for he is gloriously buttercoloured - and you have the perfect combination for catching a child's imagination. "Elephants are crazy about raisins" the girl's uncle has said. "An elephant hates cake". How the raisins cakes telescope and tweezers all play a part in delighting enraging and finally shrinking the great beast to a manageable size is the story.
