En la selva acaba de nacer el elefantito Babar. Al poco tiempo, un cazador mata a su madre y Babar tiene que ponerse a salvo en la ciudad. Alli conoce a una anciana senora que sera su mejor amiga.

Dans la forêt, un petit éléphant est né. Il s''appelle Babar. Sa maman le regarde grandir tendrement jusqu''au jour terrible où un chasseur la tue. Babar se réfugie alors en ville où il est recueilli par la vieille dame. Mais Babar se languit de sa famille et de sa forêt, lorsqu''un beau jour surgissent ses deux cousins, Arthur et Céleste. Ils décident de reprendre le chemin de la forêt. De retour chez lui, Babar, couronné roi des éléphants, choisit Céleste comme reine : couronnement et mariage ne sont que le début des aventures de nos deux héros.

In the most fantastical of the classic Babar stories, we follow Zephir, Babar''s monkey friend, home on school holiday. The monkey princess, Isabelle, has been kidnapped by the horned monster Polomoche, and everyone is very worried. But Zephir, with the help of a tiny mermaid named Eleanore, is certain that he can save the princess himself. Copyright © Libri GmbH. All rights reserved.

Newcomers to Celestville have so many Christmas decorations on their hilltop house that Babar receives a demand from King Rataxes of nearby Rhino City that the "ugliness" be removed.

After making peace with the rhinoceros, King Babar and Queen Celeste plan a model city and live happily with their friends and subjects in the country of elephants.
