Elmer and Rose
by David McKee
Join Elmer and his new friend Rose, in an uplifting story that questions what it really means to be unique. When Grandpa Eldo asks Elmer and his cousin Wilbur to help a young elephant find her way back to her herd, they get a big shock when they see she is pink! No wonder she is called Rose. As they help Rose find her herd, Elmer and Wilbur learn a valuable lesson about being different and fitting in.
"A young friend of Elmer's named Rose
Blushes from her head to her toes,
Or sometimes instead from her toes to her head
But never from her tail to her nose."
