A hilarious take on helping others and self awareness from New York Times bestselling author Jory John and comic artist sensation Liz Climo
Persnickety Elephant has an itch--a big one--and he can't reach it! While he isn't above asking for a little help, no one is up to the task. Turtle is too lazy, Snail is too slimy, and Alligator... well, Elephant isn't sure he wants his assistance. Does Elephant have to do everything himself?
Jory John's signature deadpan humor pairs perfectly with Liz Climo's oh-so-innocent-looking animals to create a slyly ironic read-aloud that will leave kids and parents in stitches.
"The expressive text andillustrations act together to make the elephant’s frustration clearly evident.... There is much [children] can identify with in this elephant’s dilemma." –Booklist
"A funny read-aloud suitable for any classroom or library."–SLJ
