Amy W wrote: "Would this cover work for the zebra option?"Yes, that works.
is this enough pink for flamingo / pink cover option?
Valorie wrote: "Sue T wrote: "Will work for zebra?"I'd rather it be more black and white,instead of black and red, sorry."
No problem, I'll find something else.
Anyone looking for an elephant book, let me recommend Elephant Run. It's a very good YA story about a boy in Burma during World War II. I read it a couple of years ago.
