Elmer and the Monster

(4) K-3 Patchwork elephant Elmer and his jungle-animal friends star in two tepid stories. In Butterfly, Elmer comes to Butterfly's rescue but doubts the small insect's ability to return the favor. In Monster, as all the animals run away from a scary sound, Elmer calmly walks toward it, eventually finding a very scared little monster. McKee's bright illustrations will attract readers. Review covers these titles: Elmer and Butterfly and Elmer and the Monster.
