Description

How did the rhinoceros get his wrinkly skin? Why won't cats come when they're called? How did one curious elephant with a nose for trouble change the lives of all elephants everywhere? This title includes eight stories which give answers to these and other intriguing questions. Each story is illustrated by a contemporary picture-book artist.
