Okay so I was downstairs sipping herbal tea when I remembered this old book I read when I was like 8. It was about this elephant who sat at the pond everyday in the jungle who wished she wasn't wobbly. The tigers would laugh at her because she looked like a drunk woman and told the elephant to puff up her chest and than she would have more pride. She sat at the pond that morning and turned into this yellow balloon that went up to the sky, that was it. It was one of those color books and I remember the page of the balloon, the clouds were blue and painted with watercolor but the balloon was bright yellow and went up into the sky that darkened.

I remembered this because I was drinking my tea which just so happened have some yellow flowers, kinda like the one the elephant had next to her ear. I could've sworn that year the teacher gave it to me to keep, no idea where it went. can't remember the name but in case any of you knew what i'm talking about comment, was looking forward to finding the book again and giving it to my grandmother.
