Title: Elmer and the Whales <>Binding: Hardcover <>Author: DavidMcKee <>Publisher: AndersenPress
"The patchwork elephant that children have come to know and love and his cousin Wilbur take a raft down the river through the jungle to the ocean to visit the whales, seeing colorful flora and fauna along the way. After a frightening but successful trip through the charging rapids, they float out to sea and meet the whales, who then push them back to shore. The writing flows and is a great complement to the vivid spreads. This book is appealing to Elmer's fans or as a first introduction to this endearing character." --School Library Journal
