A funny, colourful story about learning empathy for others and helping those who may need it from the multi-award-winning creator of One Fox. The littlest elephant is always in a rush, until a tiny mouse shows her how to slow down and notice the other creatures in the jungle, from butterflies and chameleons, to monkeys and a tiger. The bright and richly illustrated pages will entrance any child as they follow the littlest elephant on her way to the pool for a swim.
