"Mom . . . there's an elephant in the living room. It's moving day-and look who slipped in the door: an elephant! But when a little girl tries to tell her family about their unusual guest, the distracted grown-ups just say, "Ella WHO?" Even as children giggle at the girl's adventures with the smallish pachyderm, and at the fun, recurring refrain, they'll relate to the poignant theme about making-and sometimes letting go of-new friends." - ONIX annotations.… (more)

A little girl makes friends with a baby elephant on moving day, when her parents and grandmother are busily oblivious. When a man comes with a flyer, the girl realizes the elephant must go home, and sadly calls the number on the flyer. The final page shows a wider view of the house, including the "neighbors" next door: a wild animal sanctuary.

Very cute and sweet and funny ("I think we would have noticed an elephant," said Dad). See also: One Cool Friend, Have You Seen Elephant? ( )

This was a cute book. The illustrations were well done and adorable. My only complaint about this book with it being a children's book is that it seems to be geared towards children who are just starting to learn to read on their own without their parents help, and there are some words (I don't remember them off hand) where I feel a child in this age range would have to ask a parent to explain to them what it means. Not that that's a bad thing, but it seems more to me like a book that a parent would need to read with the child and not as an independent reader. But, with that being said, I really did enjoy reading this book. ( )
