Elmer’s Birthday

A humorous birthday-themed story from our favourite patchwork elephant, the twenty-seventh in the series! Elmer celebrates diversity, being different, and accepting who you – and others – are. A universal message that seems to be more and more relevant to children all over the world. On his birthday, the elephants decide to play a trick on Elmer: all of the animals must pretend to forget his birthday tomorrow! But when the day comes the trick doesn’t quite go according to plan. The elephants should have listened to Elmer’s friends…David is the creator of well-known characters including King Rollo, Mr Benn and Elmer the Patchwork Elephant, which is now published in more than 50 languages and has its own successful global merchandise programme.
