Is That An Elephant Over There?
Rebecca Elgar
Hardcover
(Gullane Children's Books, Dec. 31, 1998)
Animals hiding behind the trees, deep in the jungle, just waiting for you to pick them out! The text consists of just one sentence--Is that an elephant over there?--but there are five different answers! Pull the flap away and each time another creature appears, along with its name. First, a nice striped zebra stands there, and then comes a smiling tiger with a wagging tail. A big, round hippo shows up next (it's blue!), followed by the King of the Jungle--a majestic lion. And then last, but not least: YES, it's an elephant, carrying a flower in its trunk! Thick cardboard tear-resistant flaps, the brief text, and charming labeled pictures of friendly animals will give children a great reading experience! 10 pages (all in color), 7 x 7 1/4 Laminated Board.
