Synopsis:

Here's the secret. Follow your uncle's advice and take to the jungle "3 cakes, 2 raisins, 1 telescope, and a pair of tweezers." Find a tree and wait for an elephant. If the elephant is angry, obstreperous, and hungry...hold on, be brave--things are not always what they seem.

About the Author: Amy Schwartz has written and illustrated many classic picture books, among them Bea and Mr. Jones, a "Reading Rainbow" Feature, Oma and Bobo, Annabelle Swift, Kindergartner, and A Teeny Tiny Baby, a New York Times Best Illustrated Book of the Year. She lives in Brooklyn, New York.
