Description
In the 1870's, a young boy helps care for the enormous African elephant that is the London Zoo's feature attraction and accompanies him to America to become part of P.T. Barnum's circus.
This is the true story of Jumbo, once the star attraction at London Zoo, but it is also the fictional story of Tod Tolliver, a lonely boy who helps take care of Jumbo and loves him. When the zoo sells Jumbo to Barnum's circus in New York, Tod decides to stow away on the ship and join him.
