Explanation:
The story "Elephant's Child" was written by Rudyard Kipling. The story is about the baby of an Elephant. It spoke about the problems that he had to go through when it was a small baby. The problems also included the fear of the crocodile eating the elephant when it was a small baby and could not save itself.
But the problems decreased when it grew up and became tall. It could now save itself and do everything on it's own like taking fruits from the trees having high branches or be it flying away the flies which sat on the trunk of the elephant.
