A Very Strange Creature

What is the odd new creature the jungle animals have stumbled upon--and why does it call itself a Waa-aa-aa? Monkey is very puzzled when he finds a strange creature in the jungle, and he calls the other animals to help. It doesn't have a tail for swinging, a trunk for washing, a long neck for reaching the high trees, or even webbed feet for swimming. Whatever could it be? The jungle animals are delightful, and young children will love sharing the joke that they know what the very strange creature is and the animals don't.
