    In the realm of magical circuses, there was a particular troupe that stood out among the rest. It was the only circus in the world where the main performers were not human but elephants. These were not just any elephants, but baby ones who possessed a surprising talent.

    The elephants were young, playful and energetic. They were always curious, exploring their surroundings and playing with whatever they could find. They had a knack for turning ordinary objects into magical toys.

    One day, while playing, they discovered a large, round, rubber ball. With their trunks, they pushed it around and tried to balance on it. To their delight, they found that they could stand on the ball and not fall off.

    This was the start of their unique talent for balancing. The more they practiced, the better they got. They were able to balance on one foot, then on their trunks, and even on their tails.

    One day, the youngest elephant, Jumbo, was having trouble with his balancing act. He kept falling off the ball and couldn't seem to get it right. The other elephants tried to help him, but nothing seemed to work.
