Press out the baby elephant on the cover and walk him through the book as he meets lots of little friends. He thinks that everyone is smaller than he is until he finds someone who's huge.

Mommy found this book at the library and she loves it!!! The elephant on the front lifts off the cover and then you can compare how big the elephant is to the other animals on each page. The elephant always stays attached to the book by a ribbon. I'm warming up to it...always takes me a little bit of time to appreciate a new book. I do love playing with the elephant, though, and placing it back onto and off of the cover...it's like a puzzle, which I just might be old enough for now!
