Eva, the adorable little elephant, works hard during the day gathering food - tasty leaves, grasses and bark. After a hard day’s work, she rushes down to the local waterhole where she loves to swim, sometimes using trunk as a snorkel! No cannonballing though because she can’t jump… She sits 7 inches tall (when made with the recommended materials).
