About this title

From the Inside Flap

(back cover)
"Remember to stay with the herd," says Mama.
"And never forget how much I love you."

Monty the elephant is given two things to remember. But when he sees something blue and bright, he forgets Mama's words and goes off to investigate. Will he find her again before the rain comes?

(front flap)
Young Monty the elephant would like to give some flowers to his Mama. When he mistakes a half-buried bright blue bucket for a bouquet of forget-me-nots, he stops to dig it up. But while he's busy digging, his Mama and the rest of the elephant herd move ahead. Soon poor Monty finds himself alone and lost. When he goes looking for his herd, he discovers other animals grouped together--flamingos, meerkats, and even termites. But where is the elephant herd, and where is Monty's Mama? Can he find them before the rain comes?
