Elmer and the Wind by David Mckee

Elmer and the Wind by David Mckee

Aided and abetted by his ventriloquist cousin, Wilbur, Elmer pretends to be blown away on the windiest day. They make fools of the other elephants, but when the laughter dies down, Elmer reassures them that a heavy elephant is safe in the worst of gales. When he tries to prove it, much to his surprise, he really does get blown away! Read along with the audio CD included to bring the story to life!
