  Tex Clark was the top man at the zoo. He liked to watch the animals in the zoo. He liked to watch the children, too. One day he saw a big boy. Tex ran over and said, “Come with me,”He pulled the big boy over to the elephants' pen.

  Tex picked up a stick. He waved it in front of a big elephant. “Up, Jo-Jo ! ”he shouted. Up went the elephant's big head. Up went one big front leg and then the other. The elephant stood on her hind legs. Her trunk was high in the air.

  “Lie down ! ”Tex shouted to Jo-Jo. He pointed to the boy, “Pick him up, Jo-Jo ! ”Then he said to the boy,“Don't be afraid. She won't hurt you. ”

  The big elephant put her trunk around the boy. She carried him high into the air and put him down on her head.

  Of course the boy was afraid. But then he looked around. What a way to see the zoo! He looked down into the monkeys' cage. Down at the tigers. Down at the lions. And everyone was looking at him!

  The boy went to the zoo again and again. He didn't go just for an elephant ride. He helped feed the animals. He helped clean the cages. Not many boys did that like him.

  Tex stayed at the zoo for the rest of his life.

  “I'll tell you why I work here,”he often said. “I love animals. I love children too. Where do you find both animals and children? At the zoo, of course. ”
