Half of an Elephant

40 pp. | Kane/Miller | September, 2006 | Trade ISBN 1-933605-09-X $15.95
(3) K-3 After "the world split in two," the front and back halves of an elephant try to reconnect. Along the way each joins up with other half-creatures, such as a half-flamingo and a half-monkey, before becoming whole again. Children will delight in poring over the whimsical collage illustrations, constructed from scraps of wood and cardboard, screws, springs, and other detritus.
Reviewer: Christine M. Heppermann
