Elmer in the Snow

Elmer, the patchwork elephant, meets a group of unhappy elephants. They are cold. Elmer takes them for a walk to a place where the trees are different and they find the ground covered with . . . snow! The elephants, who have never seen snow, have a great time playing in the snow and sliding on the ice. But when Elmer disappears, what will the elephants do? Will they be able to find their missing friend?

Elmer’s adventure will delight young and old alike as he teaches his complaining friends a gentle lesson. Bright illustrations add to the pleasure.

Highly recommended.

The elephants are complaining about being cold so Elmer takes them on a walk where they end up in the snow. The elephants spend all day playing in the snow until it starts to snow really hard then they head home. When they get home they say it was fun to play in the snow but it is nice to be somewhere warmer. This is a silly story about Elmer and elephants and it just means that everything is relative.

If you like Elmer, the patchwork elephant then you will enjoy this story of how he leads the other elephants to the top of the mountain to play in the snow! It is a cute story and will be a nice addition to storytime.

A cute book about this friendly patchwork elephant.
