Illustrated by
Galia Bernstein.
Friends Monkey and Elephant are very much alike. In the first chapter, each thinks the other is a copycat; when both get sick in the remaining two chapters, they discover that they also have some differences. Bright but somewhat flat computer-generated illustrations allow youngsters to preview the action before reading the words; the bold typeface and jewel-tone palette are eye-catching.
