## Resource

A group of children who encounter a large inflatable elephant used as an advertisement for a carpet sale. While their mother is busy shopping, she dismisses their observations as nonsense, unaware that the object is tethered to a rooftop. A powerful storm eventually breaks the balloon's restraints, causing it to soar through the air and across the city. The following day, the children discover the deflated elephant at their school playground and try to show it to their teacher. Just like their mother, Mrs. May refuses to believe such an unlikely story, even as the evidence sits right behind her.
