Poor Little Elephant--he simply wants a friend. But when he tries to play with Turtle, Heron, and two friendly frogs, their size differences bring disaster. What's a big little elephant to do? Well, with a little imagination, a little determination, and a lot of creativity, this elephant discovers that friends come in all sizes . . . as long as everybody steers clear of the seesaw! Valeri Gorbachev's charming illustrations perfectly capture Little Elephant's anxiety, making this a reassuring book for all children who are just getting comfortable in their own skin.
