Elmer and Wilbur by David Mckee
Elmer loves practical jokes, but so does his cousin Wilbur. Until, that is, Wilbur's practical joke leaves him high and dry and Elmer and the other elephants have to come to the rescue and bring him back down to earth. This classic story is now even more appealing to the youngest of children in a sturdy, padded board book format.
