Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
"McKee's gentle humor and love of irony are in full force in this celebration of individuality and laughter." --Publishers Weekly
Elmer the elephant is bright-colored patchwork all over. No wonder the other elephants laugh at him!
If he were ordinary elephant color, the others might stop laughing. That would make Elmer feel better, wouldn't it? David McKee's comical fable about everyone's favorite patchwork elephant teaches readers to be themselves and celebrates the power of laughter.
Originally published: New York : McGraw-Hill, 1968.
All the elephants of the jungle were gray except Elmer, who was a patchwork of brilliant colors until the day he got tired of being different and making the other elephants laugh.
