'Stand back', said the elephant, 'I'm going to sneeze!'

by Patricia- Thomas, Wallace Tripp

About this title: The animals are panicking - if the elephant sneezes he will blow the monkeys out of the trees, the feathers off the birds and the stripes off the zebras. A move intervenes to stop such catastrophe, but the animals learn to their cost that an elephant's laugh can be as dangerous as his sneeze.

Note: This is a general synopsis. Each listing is described below.

"This book was my absolute favorite when I was little as well as my mother's when she was growing up. A few years ago I went out of my way to find a copy of this book to give to my mother for Christmas because our copy had gotten lost somewhere along the way. I fully intend to have a copy on hand when my own children are old enough for bedtime stories."

"Wonderful "advanced" easy reader. Darling, funny illustrations and bright, imaginative verse. Love the vocabulary it contains (not to mention the fun homophone "Nothing's so sad as a bear that is bare")."
