Babar and the Succotash Bird

One night on his terrace, Alexander is greeted by a strange and exotic bird. The young elephant is delighted to discover the brightly colored creature is a wizard. The bird entertains Alexander with his magic and promises to visit him again soon.

The following day on a family outing, Alexander sees a similar bird flying overhead. Sure that it must be his wizard, he races after it, eager to see more magic. But Alexander quickly learns that things are not always as they appear.
