“Then why are you so sad?” asked Mr. Elephant.

“Because I did not see any mummies of elephants,” said Penelope.Mr. Elephant smiled and patted her on the head. He said, “Well, my dear. I will see if I can find an elephant mummy for you.”

Penelope felt cheered up then.

After visiting the British Museum, the Elephants were very hungry. It was time for afternoon tea. The Elephants walked to Covent Garden where they found a café. They drank tea with milk and sugar. And ate scones with cream and jam.

Then Mrs. Elephant wanted to do some

shopping. She wanted to buy gifts for their friends and family in Elephas. So they bought some postcards and gifts to take home.

After shopping, it was time for dinner. The Elephants found another nice pub close to their hotel. Mr. Elephant ordered fish and chips again. Mrs. Elephant ordered steak and kidney pie. Penelope ordered Shepherd’s Pie.

And Harold ordered Bangers and Mash. He was let down to learn that the Bangers were not firecrackers. It was another name for sausages.

The Elephants were all pleased that their dinners were served with peas. Because (as you already know) elephants are very fond of peas.

Mrs. Elephant and the children drank cups of tea with milk and sugar. Mr. Elephant drank a glass of cider. The cider made him feel quite sleepy. So the Elephants went back to their hotel.

They tiptoed through the hotel lobby to the lift. Penelope and Harold were careful not to trip on the rug. They rode up to their room on the top floor.

The Elephants each took a bath. They changed into their pajamas, and brushed their teeth.

Mr. and Mrs. Elephant tucked Harold and Penelope into their beds. They all read a story together about London. They kissed their children both good night.

The Elephants all went to sleep. They dreamed about the fun things that they would do tomorrow. Mrs. Elephant dreamed about being a famous sculptor making Egyptian statues. She was very happy to make such beautiful artwork.

Mr. Elephant dreamed about being stuck in the Underground turnstiles. He tossed and turned in his sleep.

Penelope dreamed that she discovered a dinosaur skeleton in the hotel lobby. She was very happy to find something so interesting.

And Harold dreamed that he was a king. He wore a crown and carried a scepter. As king, Harold commanded all of the toy soldiers in England. This made Harold very happy.
