Bird: Im helpful. I can fly over rivers and mountain. And I can sing beautiful songs.
Butterfly: Im most helpful! Im pretty. People are happy to see me, and children are happy to play with me. All the animals like me.
Puppy: Im more helpful than you. I can look after the babies, and catch the thief. I can be everybodys friend.
Elephant: ... [Elephant is sitting on the grass without any words.]

蝴蝶說:我才是最有用的。我這么美麗,招人喜愛,孩子們喜歡和我玩,所有動物都喜歡我。
小狗說:我比你們能干多了。我能看孩子,抓小偷。我很忠誠,我是所有人的朋友。
大象:……(大象坐在草地上一言不發(fā))
最后,老國王選了大象當新的森林之王。他說:“大象身體強壯,卻最謙卑?!?
