Elmer and Wilbur - David McKee

This is another great book in David McKee s series of books about Elmer. ~ Who is Elmer? ~ An elephant with a difference! Instead of being a bog standard grey elephant, this lovable patchwork elephant was first introduced to children in 1989 with the book entitled Elmer .

He is also a patchwork elephant but only in black and white. *The Story* The story starts with Elmer explaining to the other elephants that his cousin Wilbur is coming to visit. “‘He’s late,’ said Elmer. ‘Perhaps he’s lost. Let’s go and look for him.’” The ...
