Review

Small One's Adventure is an original and gentle children's story by Doris L. Mueller about the youngest elephant in the herd, who wants to show the bigger and older members just how grown-up she is - but learns the hard way that rushing into adulthood isn't the way to go, and moms and dads really do have a wealth of experience to draw and learn from. A thoughtful tale, brought to life with color artwork by Parker Fulton that evokes the plains of Africa, Small One's Adventure is a welcome and recommended addition to family, community, and school library picture book collections. --Midwest Book Review
