Wewe’s Naughty Trunk

The Elephant Queen Stories are inspired by the remarkable wildlife documentary The Elephant Queen, an Apple Original, now available on Apple TV+. Written by the film’s writer-director Mark Deeble, an Emmy® and Peabody Award-winning filmmaker, these books draw young readers into the world of Athena, a majestic elephant matriarch, and her family.


Wewe’s naughty trunk has a mind of its own! It trips him up, refuses to extend, and won’t pick things up. He tries so hard to copy the grownups, but it’s just not working. Wewe’s wise grandmother Athena tries to tell Wewe to treat his trunk gently—and that all good things take time. In Wewe’s Naughty Trunk, we learn about the day when something special happens, and Wewe and his trunk decide to be friends.
