Punctuated by a repetitive sequence that supports the character’s perseverance, this story is an ode to determination as well as candor.

THE BOOK: Taking a leisurely stroll, Elephant looks up to see an appetizing red apple high up in a tree. No doubt driven by greed, he leaps without hesitation towards the fruit of his desire. But climbing trees, even with all the courage and inventiveness you can muster, remains a rather whimsical challenge for a pachyderm. But life is full of possibilities, and all it takes is a little patience and a few lucky breaks.

Themes: elephant, perseverance, humor, imagination.
