Once upon a time, in the deep, green forests, lived a mischievous baby elephant named Ellie and a playful baby squirrel named Sammy. They loved exploring the woods together, climbing trees and chasing butterflies.
One sunny day, as Ellie and Sammy were happily bouncing around, they stumbled upon a hidden cottage. Little did they know, it belonged to a wicked witch named Winifred. She had eyes as sharp as her long, crooked nose and she loved to capture animals to use in her potions and spells.
Curiosity got the better of them, and Ellie and Sammy sneaked into the cottage. They giggled and whispered, thinking they were invisible. But just as they were about to leave, they heard Winifred's cackling voice, 'Ah-ha! I have you now, my little intruders!'
Winifred scooped up Ellie and Sammy, trapping them in a jar. The friends were scared but brave. Sammy squeaked, 'Ellie, we must find a way to escape!' Ellie nodded and whispered back, 'Let's use our good listening skills to find a clue.'
Listening closely, they heard the witch muttering something about a magic key. Their ears perked up, and they knew they had to be patient. When Winifred finally left the room, Ellie and Sammy spotted a shiny key. They used their teamwork to unlock the jar and escaped just in time!
