This Calls for an Elephant

Edgar is getting new neighbours and he’s not happy.

What if they’re mean and bossy?
Or aliens on a mission to take over the earth?
Or monsters who gobble kids up like ice cream?

Whatever might be coming, he knows one thing for sure: this calls for a plan. Something big. Something bold. Something brave.

This calls for an elephant!

Follow Edgar as he problem-solves his way around obstacles with creativity and determination, all in an effort to protect himself from the new and unknown. Will he find success? Will he find an elephant? Or will he find what he’s been missing all along? And where did that duck come from?

Ideal for children aged 3-7, “This Calls for an Elephant!” delivers a spirited and entertaining tale in a first release by talented new children’s author/illustrator Christopher Muggridge.

A fun take on quelling fears of the unknown

Really fun little story with adorable artwork. Longer words and typographic emphasis makes this a fun one to read with your kids as they stretch their vocabulary. I hope this is the first of many in a, “This calls for a ____,” series.

Amazing!

This book is amazing . Both of my kids ( age 9&11 ) really enjoyed it and have read it a few times already.
