How to Find an Elephant

32 pp. | Farrar/Ferguson | November, 2017 | Trade ISBN 978-0-374-33508-3 $16.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Boris Kulikov. A how-to manual for finding an elephant begins with a little boy's instructions to pack your binoculars, blanket, and flute, and moves on into an imaginary jungle populated with a variety of animals. Although the search seems fruitless, there's an elephant cleverly hidden in every picture. The story drags a bit toward the end, but Kulikov's illustrations are a visual feast for keen observers.
