AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Hugo is in a small hospital right next to the zoo. He's much better and wants to go home, but the doctor says it's not time yet. He doesn't feel like watching TV or playing cards and he keeps thinking about what they'll be doing at home and feeling sad ... until one day he hears a special message from the elephant in the zoo and his adventures begin.
