Pomelo Begins to Grow

48 pp. | Enchanted Lion | September, 2011 | Trade ISBN 978-1-59270-111-7 $16.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Benjamin Chaud. In this French import, a miniature elephant notices he's getting bigger and begins to ponder a variety of questions about the nature of growth and growing up. The odd little elephant and his fellow garden inhabitants, as shown in the large, spacious illustrations, have great child appeal. Some of Pomelo's more abstract meditations may spark discussion (or go over readers' heads).
