Elefantina's Dream

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Graham Percy. In this follow-up to Elympics, Elefantina the elephant works her way up to Elympic skating competition. She earns money for skates, then practices on a makeshift rink (hard to come by in the tropics), finds a coach, and finally heads to the big city for tryouts. Nimble verse keeps readers on their toes, and the illustrations manage to make the elephants on ice perfectly believable.
