Books with title One Little Elephant

Little elephant has learned how to do many things: walk backwards, hop on three legs, spin around like a falling leaf, and do wonderful tricks with his trunk--catch bananas, hold onto his mother's tail, even spray everyone with water! But there's one thing he hasn't quite mastered: He cannot trumpet. Here is a delightful story about a fun-loving little elephant who learns a lot--but at his own pace!--encouraged all the way by his proud and loving parents.

Bendy Tales are brightly illustrated board books that humorously describe different animals for the delight of toddlers. Each book is shaped like its title animal--and each brightly colored animal shape has a real tail made of bendable material that's covered with soft cloth. The tail can bend into a hook, so that the book can be hung from a crib rail, or high-chair edge, or any other firm platform. The pages--all color illustrated from edge to edge--are constructed of extra heavy cardboard that withstands rough treatment from tiny hands. The text is presented on a level that preschoolers will understand and enjoy. The elephant appears to have a tail at both ends. Kids learn many more facts about these huge and fascinating animals.

One little boy living on a farm in rural Texas gets a big surprise when he discovers tiny flying elephants under his bed. But his mom doesn’t like critters in the house, so he tries to keep them a secret. Until one day they escape from his bedroom and cause havoc in the house. But when locusts invade the farm and start to destroy crops, the elephants come to the rescue!Bestselling author-illustrator Graeme Base has created a unique story with his signature illustrations, which are sure to appeal to young readers.Praise for Little Elephants"The minimal text wisely recedes for Base's gorgeous paintings, and the story's very implausibility is a large part of the delight... An offbeat and winning mix of earthiness and enchantment."—Kirkus Reviews"This is a strange, magical book. Base’s lush paintings ground the fanciful story in its realistic rural setting. At the same time, the landscapes are suffused with a golden glow that casts a soporific charm over the whole book. Interesting visual details abound, from the mouse’s thimble helmet to the prophetic circus posters on the walls. A great book to enjoy one-on-one."—School Library Journal"Graeme Base has done it again. His beautifully detailed paintings are such an important part of this story."—Library Media Connection
