The Elephant's Garden by Jane Ray
Vibrant collage artwork with stunning colours, Jane Ray has excelled herself by creating a beautiful new style. Every night, all the best fruits in Jasmine's garden are eaten. But who can this very hungry, fruit eater be? Jasmine decides to stay up all night to find out but is in for a big surprise and all her friends learn a lesson about greed! "Vivid collages create a sumptuous setting for an Indian fable of greed and just desserts"
–The Wall Street Journal
" . . evocative of Matisse, Ray’s collages are alive in colour, movement, and texture. . ."
–Booklist
