Elmer and Butterfly by David Mckee
One day, as Elmer is strolling through the jungle, he hears a cry for help. A butterfly has been trapped in a hole by a fallen branch. Elmer rushes to the rescue and frees her with ease. In return she promises to help Elmer should he ever need it. But just how can a butterfly ever help an elephant?
"As always McKee’s vibrant, softly surreal artwork — he’s a master of color and patterning — pulls readers headlong into the pages" * New York Times Online *
