Books with title Emily the Elegant Elephant

In this, Jenni Desmond’s third nonfiction children’s book about one of the large, endangered animals of Earth, we join a young boy as he learns about The Elephant. From Africa to Asia, the elephant makes its home. Light on their feet, despite their great weight, these magnificent creatures appear light and graceful because they’re always walking on their tip-toes. They have excellent hearing and can detect the rumblings of other elephants from six miles away. And, just like humans being right handed or left handed, elephants can be right tusked or left tusked! The recipient of the 2016 New York Times Best Illustrated award for her book The Polar Bear, Desmond creates illustrations that are scientifically accurate, strikingly detailed, and beautifully rendered in collage, paint, and colored pencil.

Ella's counting the days until the first day of school ... but not because she's eager to start! On the contrary, as the littlest elephant on Elephant Island, she's terribly nervous about the other kids she'll meet. Then she receives a beautiful red hat that belonged to her grandmother -- her new lucky charm. Big mean Belinda at school teases her for it, calling her "Ella the Elegant Elephant." But Ella's brave enough to hold on to her hat, and in the end, the hat (and her heart) save the day. With warm, rich pictures and a charming main character, ELLA is sure to be a new favorite.

What an exciting day it was at the zoo when the baby girl elephant was born! Mommy and Daddy Elephant were proud of their baby’s beautiful blue eyes and pretty pink toenails. They had already decided on the name, Emily, and, since they thought she was absolutely elegant, they decided to call her Emily the Elegant Elephant. But when Emily gets into some unexpected trouble, all she really needs is just some patience and understanding. With 19 rich, imaginative, water-color illustrations, veteran writer and artist Joan Hildebrand Zobel creates a loving, vibrant, supportive community around newborn Emily the Elephant and her adoring parents and relatives.
