Ernest, the Moose Who Doesn't Fit

(3) K-3 "Rather large moose" Ernest is too big for this book. After various attempts to "shimmy, shift, and shuffle" himself in, his chipmunk friend cobbles a "rather large book" in which he can fit. The self-aware story line is virtually identical to Mo Willems's Big Frog Can't Fit In, but Rayner's multimedia art, full of vibrancy, is the bigger draw anyway.
