Here he meets the Old Lady who buys him a red car and a green suit and a professor who gives him lessons. But although he enjoys telling his new friends about life in the great forest, he misses his mother, and the monkeys, so when he finds his elephant cousins, who have come to the city on their own adventure, he drives them back to their homeland. There he is crowned King of the Elephants and his cousin Celeste becomes queen.
