Jackanory: Stories from India: The White Elephant

on BBC One London

with Indira Brown

In most Indian villages you can find a very large and beautiful tree growing. It is called the Banyan, and when Indira Brown lived in India she spent the hot afternoons sitting in the shade of a Banyan tree, listening while the elders of the village told stories-about wise Maharajahs and mighty elephants, hungry lions and foolish hares.
