Suji secretly brings her beloved elephant to school, where classmates turn a doorway disaster into a joyful lesson about friendship, teamwork, and belonging.

SYNOPSIS

Suji and her enormous best friend Elephant have never been apart. On her first day of school, her mother worries that the other children will tease her if she brings Elephant along, but Suji secretly takes him anyway. When Elephant becomes firmly stuck in the classroom doorway, Suji bursts into tears. Instead of laughing, her new classmates rush to help, pulling and pushing together until he is free. They even rearrange the classroom so everyone can sit together, turning Suji’s greatest fear into a warm experience of friendship, acceptance, and belonging.
