Elmer is not like the other elephants in his herd. It might be hard to believe, but he is a multi-coloured elephant: green, blue, white, pink, yellow… Incredible! Right? But Elmer doesn’t find this funny at all, he is actually sick of being different, so when day he decides to escape from the herd and go look for a remedy to turn his skin the same colour as all the others…
Elmer is the youngest ones’ favourite elephant. As there is no other elephant like him in the whole jungle: his bright colours make him different from everyone else. With his fun stories, perfect to read as a family, we learn that all of us are just as special as he is.
With this classic, you will learn very important values such as solidarity, respect, friendships and, above anything else, to celebrate differences.

And get ready to discover exactly how a terrible lady-dragon terrorised a whole village. How she was about to eat a beautiful/handsome and delicate prince to satisfy her insatiable hunger. And how Georgina, the bravest of the brave, fixed this mess with audacity, ferocity and… humour. A lot of humour!
As maybe things are not like what we are told. And maybe roses as white. Or yellow instead…

Our little lamb and the wolf have become the best of friends. But it will be hard for the world to understand this unusual friendship… Just like when the little lamb invites his friends over to play and they run away terrified when they see the wolf. Or just like when the wolf invites his friends over for dinner and has to remind them, again and again, that the little lamb is not food.
