Awakened by a loud clanging, Chico Bon Bon (Monkey with a Tool Belt) searches his tree-house home. The noise's source is revealed: an elephant is stuck in Chico's laundry chute. Utilizing some unconventional tools, Chico devises a creative plan for dislodging the trapped pachyderm. Delightfully detailed illustrations featuring an elaborate seventeen-room tree house set the tone for Chico's second off-beat, tool-heavy adventure.
