Summary

"Kids will take comfort in this endearing and enduring tale of friends helping friends." BOOKLIST Theodore the elephant has hurt his leg and can't meet his cousin at the end of the forest. What a pity! Of course, all the other animals are more than willing to give him advice. After all, that's what friends are for isn't it? Enhanced by Holly Meade's vivid collages, Florence Parry Heide's dry wit rings through this cumulative tale of a long-suffering elephant, his well-meaning friends, and a straight-talking opossum who shows them all what being a REAL friend means.

Author Biography

Sylvia Van Clief collaborated with Florence Parry Heide on a wide variety of books and songs, including the children’s collection entitled "Songs to Sing About Things You Think About," with Ms. Van Clief composing the music and Ms. Heide writing the words. Sylvia Van Clief died in 1974.

Holly Meade has illustrated many acclaimed books for children, including ON MORNING WINGS by Reeve Lindbergh and HUSH!: A THAI LULLABY by Minfong Ho, a Caldecott Honor Book. "I just love the genuineness and warmth of this story. These well-meaning forest critters so completely miss the mark in helping their friend - thank goodness for the opossum!"
