Uncle Elephant — Arnold Lobel

From the Newbery and Caldecott Honor award-winning author of the Frog and Toad books, “a warming relationship . . . that invites dwelling on, and re-reading.” (Kirkus Reviews)

While his mother and father are away, a little elephant goes to visit his uncle. And what a time they have! Uncle Elephant makes wishes come true, tells amazing stories, and trumpets the dawn. The visit is perfect, except for one thing -- it ends much too soon.

This Level Two I Can Read is geared toward kids who read on their own but still need a little help.

The classic Frog and Toad stories by author and illustrator Arnold Lobel have won numerous awards and honors, including a Newbery Honor, a Caldecott Honor, ALA Notable Children's Book, Fanfare Honor List (Horn Book), School Library Journal Best Children's Book, and Library of Congress Children's Book.
