Babar

Babar is the titular main protagonist of the cartoon book, movie and TV show all of the same name, and along with his grandson Badou, its computer-animated spin-off series Babar and the Adventures of Badou. He is currently king of Celesteville, an African village for Elephant he founded to give his people the same level of comfort as man. Babar has a wife named Celeste, whom he named his village after and (at first) has triplets named Pom, Flora, and Alexander, and would later have another daughter named Isabelle. Babar was taken in by an old lady often simply addressed as Madame and invited her to live in his kingdom as one of its most honored citizens. The majority of Babar's problems after the first book which focuses on building the city itself as a haven for his people, is everyday issues of how to solve social problems or having to do with exotic adventures.
== Biography ==
Babar was born and raised in the Great Forest, and deeply loved his mother. As he got older, he began to play with other elephants in the forest.
One day, while Babar was riding on his mother's back, a cruel hunter shot at the elephants, fatally wounding Babar's mother. The hunter ran up to Babar, but the little elephant fled. Days later, he arrived in a town, where he was taken in by a very rich old lady. The lady bought Babar some clothes as he later adapted to human life.
Years later, Babar began to feel homesick, until one day his cousins Arthur and Celeste came into town. Babar bought his cousins some human clothes and treated them to some teacakes. Soon afterwards, Arthur and Celeste's mothers scolded their children for running away from home. So Babar and the other elephants returned to the forest, wishing the old lady good-bye.
The king of the elephants had just died from eating a poisonous mushroom. As the oldest elephants considered who should become their new king, Babar drove into town. Cornelius, the oldest elephant, suggested that Babar should become king, after years of living with humans. Babar accepted the offer, and appointed Celeste as queen and Cornelius as general. Babar and Celeste got married soon afterwards.
