This funny, beautifully illustrated picture book Have you seen elephant? is the debut of British author/ilustrator David Barrow and what a debut it is! Due to the interactive character of the story, we have so much fun with our youngest reading this book, we are laughing the whole time.
With so little text in combination with the brilliant illustrations, telling such a funny story is really clever! The fun of this book is also the surprising end of the story, which we will not spoil for you. The mini monsters double up laughing and because of them, we do too. David Barrow has a great sense of humor!
Another fun fact for the grown up readers, this funny picture book has been nominated for Picture Book of the Year 2018 in the Netherlands. Now we know it did not win Picture Book of the Year, but it is in the Picture Books Top 10 of 2018. And that is more than worthy of our congratulations! The book will definitely be read to children in schools all over The Netherlands, during The National Reading Days.
Three radiant smiling stars for Have you seen Elephant? from the little listeners and their readers!
