Synopsis:

A little elephant named Monty remembers his mother's love when he needs courage to find his way home.

Reviews: PreSchool-K–Monty, a little elephant, has been told by his mother to always stay with the herd and to never forget that she loves him. She tells him about the forget-me-nots that bloom after it rains on the African plains and help elephants remember. When Monty strays to investigate a blue pail that he thinks might be a forget-me-not, he gets lost. He encounters a flock of flamingos, a mob of meerkats, and a colony of termites, all of whom inform him that rain is coming and he should go home quickly. The lonely elephant then remembers what his mother had told him and continues to search until he is reunited with his herd. When he awakes the next day after the rain, the plains are covered with blue flowers, which the elephants eat, and Monty never forgets again. The story is slight but serves as a vehicle for the large, brilliantly colored cartoon illustrations of the veld and its inhabitants, highlighted by a lovable Monty.–Judith Constantinides, formerly at East Baton Rouge Parish Main Library, LA
