Elmer

Written and Illustrated by David McKee
Elmer is not like other elephants. Instead of being gray, he is checkered with all the colors of the rainbow! The other elephants laugh at him because he is funny and different. He’s not sure whether he wants to blend in and be like them, or if he’s happy standing out.
