Reviews* "Engaging and full of whimsical imagery . . . Readers learn about other animals of the savanna, herd behaviors, diet, mud baths, and more--along with a plethora of varied verbs and adjectives. The layout and artwork complement the text perfectly . . . Good as a read-aloud and for emergent readers, it concludes in a way that leads equally gracefully to the author's notes or bedtime." -- Kirkus Reviews , starred review, * "Engaging and full of whimsical imagery . . .

Beautifully illustrated by Jones in a highly textured style that calls to mind the friendly, simplified shapes of Eric Carle's collages, all in an appropriately golden palette of natural tones . . . There's plenty little ones can grasp from this book's winsome lines and genial artwork." -- Booklist

SynopsisA charming and exuberant nonfiction picture book about a young elephant's day on the savanna with her herd. If you were an elephant, you'd be the biggest animal who lives on the land. You'd have ears big as tent flaps, skin thick as blankets. You'd turn the next page with your trunk, not your hand. Chock-full of amazing facts, this joyful read aloud invites readers to follow in the (enormous) footsteps of one of the world's most remarkable creatures--from munching on bushes and branches all day, to splashing around in water holes and mud baths, to finally curling up with the herd in a pool of moonlight. Kids will love every moment of this playful introduction to the daily sights, sounds, and activities of a young elephant in the wild.
