Look! There's Elmer

This new Elmer book encourages even the youngest child to be interactive. Bird initiates a game of hide and seek, and in turn, Lion, Giraffe, Crocodile, Elmer's friend Wilbur, Tiger, Kangaroo (purple of course), Hippo and the Monkeys all claim they can see Elmer in his hiding place. We too can see his bright patchwork colours, through the cleverly placed peepholes. But each fresh page reveals we are mistaken, it's not Elmer! We enjoy a lazy search through a rainbow-coloured jungle. This is a book full of fun, produced on thick, strong paper, with peepholes that will survive curious fingers. The tale is cumulative, with repetitive language well suited to inexperienced readers tackling the book alone. Elmer fans will love it, and for new readers it will serve as an excellent introduction to Elmer's longer adventures.
