Very good elephant
Winston, a knee-high elephant in a burnt orange harness

Meet Winston

He fits through a doorway. Barely.

Winston stands about as tall as your kitchen counter and weighs roughly the same as a golden retriever who has had a big lunch. He walks on a harness, he greets absolutely everyone, and he is unshakably convinced that every bakery is expecting him.

Most days he goes somewhere ordinary โ€” a park, a bus stop, a library. What happens next is never quite ordinary.
