How Elephant Met Giraffe by Paul Gude-ADVISABLE

Gude, Paul, How Elephant Met Giraffe. Disney Hyperion, 2014. $16.99. PICTURE BOOK.

One day, Elephant went to the pool and met Giraffe, but the Giraffe didn’t say anything. Soon, however, Elephant learned that Giraffe couldn’t talk. One day Giraffe decided to make pretzels and Elephant wanted to help, but will they be able to continue their friendship when things get messy?

The illustrations are well-done and colorful. The text is simple and is complemented well by the illustrations. The characters are likable and fun to follow in the story. A great read aloud for animal fans everywhere. PreK. EL (K-3). ADVISABLE. Reviewer: Jessica M, Library Media Specialist, Olympus Jr. High.
