Elliott Elephant used to be...RUDE! He guzzled his drink and he gobbled his food. And when he would trumpet, as elephants do, He'd trumpety trump from his bottom end too! Elliott Elephant is so busy having fun that he stops thinking about his friends - he charges and barges, he belly-flops into the water with an almighty SPLASH, and he even toot-toots from both ends! But Elliott learns the hard way that if you care for others they'll care about you. A riotous rhyming picture book full of humour - with a very important lesson about friendship.
