When an elephant hears the word “no,” it may respond with a tantrum. The reaction is described as steaming, stomping, and explosive, and it creates a big problem. The book also says that “no” can have many meanings. It connects an elephant’s intense response to a refusal with the idea that the same word can mean different things in different circumstances.
