When Elsie yells that there is something gray under the table - she’s right - an elephant! And then the next day a kangaroo and her joey and then there are two penguins in the refrigerator! What should the family do? Round everyone up and go on a seaside vacation, of course!
Ahlberg and Ingman gives us a book to foster imagination and delight us - no lesson needed. Silly and wondrous - fun times that recreate what an imaginative girl might pantomime with her stuffed animals, with savvy parents playing along.
