Ernest the Elephant

This is an adorable hardback book. Lovely story and beautiful pictures, which all have cute little details in them. – Parent * Toppsta *This is a beautifully illustrated book. The story is really nice and we both thoroughly enjoyed reading it. The colours are vibrant and we had fun looking for the unexpected treats and surprises in the jungle. – Parent * Toppsta *The illustrations are so warm and inviting. The facial expressions of the elephants are very thought-provoking. My 4 and 2 year old spent a long time poring over the pictures and they notice something new to discuss each time. – Parent * Toppsta *Ernest the Elephant is a lovely story of finding help unexpectedly, listening to your parents and realising that you just might not be quite old enough yet to do some things. * Me, Him, the Dog and a Baby Blog *Anthony Browne’s tender reworking of the Good Samaritan — about a lost baby elephant who is helped by a mouse after other creatures turn away — is part visual homage to Henri Rousseau and David McKee’s Elmer, part his own trademark surrealist substitutions. * The Times & The Sunday Times *
