Julia Eccleshare's comment:

Elmer the multi-coloured elephant is one of the best-loved characters of children’s fiction. Now it is nearly time for the visit of the magical Papa Red and, always kind and thoughtful, this time Elmer helps to make Christmas magical for all the young elephants – and to get presents to children who need them most. David McKee’s elephant world and especially the charming Elmer are as delightful as ever.

Synopsis

Elmer and Papa Red by David Mckee

It's two days before the annual visit of Papa Red and the young elephants are very excited. They choose a tree to decorate and prepare the presents for Papa Red to collect during the night to take to those who need them. But this year Elmer has a special treat in store for the young elephants, if they can keep quiet and out of sight...



Reviews

'A seasonal treat for fans of the patchwork elephant.' - Fiona Noble, The Bookseller

 'One of David McKee's warmest stories - sure to be a hit amongst both old and new fans of the patchwork coloured elephant.' - Carousel Magazine

'Elmer the Elephant is an established favourite with the two-to-five age group. In this seasonal tale, the bright bold illustrations and sense of fun are perfect for very little ones.' - Sally Morris, Daily Mail

'A very useful book to share with children who write long and demanding Christmas lists. David McKee's illustrations that accompany the story are utterly irresistible too.' - Jo Heffer, The Bookbag

 

'Every child should get to know Elmer the patchwork elephant.' - Riveting Reads SLA 3-6

'Books featuring Elmer and his friends are universally acknowledged as essential for the nursery.'  -Julia Eccleshare, lovereading4kids.co.uk
