(Bloomsbury)
£6.99
You Can’t Call an Elephant in an Emergency is sound advice. It seems like ‘he’ll blunder around and trumpet with glee/ Then tangle the hoses and cause a flood‘. What a disaster! Yet what of other potential chaos? For example, we’re advised, ‘Don’t let a hairy highland cow/ operate the new snow plough…’ What on earth might happen here? Then there’s, ‘Never have a sloth as a traffic cop… Sloths sleep all day, he’d just be a flop.’
Alongside the outrageous scenarios, Patricia Cleveland Peck and David Tazzyman offer rapid, black outlined, contemporary illustrations that heighten the fun and the chaos. The joy in the possibilities is huge!
You Can’t Call an Elephant in an Emergency is a funny, outlandish, imaginative and thoroughly engrossing picture book. Bookwagon is delighted to have discovered this title and thereafter other books in their output!
