About this book

Before he joins a circus, Tum Tum grows up among an elephant herd in the forests of India. His parents warn him to listen for danger, but playing with friends often means charging through bushes and knocking down trees. Richard Barnum gives the animals their own conversations while a chatty narrator explains trunks, tusks and herd life to young readers.

The circus chapters turn Tum Tum's strength into a source of both comedy and help. He befriends Don the dog, assists with heavy wagons and faces an urgent problem when a tiger's cage begins rolling downhill. These episodes build a children's adventure around animal friendships, practical tasks and sudden mishaps. The simple exchanges and physical humour make the book suitable for reading aloud, while its changing settings offer a glimpse of an older style of animal storytelling.
