Elmer and Rose

32 pp. | Andersen | March, 2010 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7613-5493-2 $16.95
(4) K-3 Patchwork elephant Elmer and his checkerboard cousin Wilbur escort Rose, a young pink elephant, back to her herd. Initially surprised by Rose's remark about a "strange gray" elephant they encounter, Elmer and Wilbur realize, after seeing her all-pink herd, that "different" isn't the same to everyone. The story lacks action, but the vibrant illustrations will please Elmer's fans.
