A young elephant who lives in a village by the sea.\n\nHe has one dream and it’s to join the lifeboat crew. He wants to help people in the water, bravely sailing out to sea! But elephants don’t fit in lifeboats. He’s too big to help the sailors. But one STORMY, WINDY day, the lifeboat crew run into trouble and Gabriel might be the only one who can help.
