Book Synopsis
A heart-warming story with a message as big as an elephant, this fanciful tale of friendship between an eccentric lady and her beloved pet is as poignant as it is beautiful. When Mrs Bibi is told her pet elephant has to go, she reluctantly packs her bags and heads off somewhere where they can live together in happiness. But what they both leave behind is far bigger than the other people in the town could have ever imagined. Delicate artwork compliments messages of acceptance, tolerance, and love in this moving story.

Trade Review
A parable for readers of any age, this elegant and decorative picturebook is about a woman whose pet elephant is disapproved of by villagers who have strict ideas about how time should be spent. It is an open-ended mystery and a lesson in the importance of the immaterial. * The Sunday Times *
Reza Dalvand's book is a stunning work of remarkable colour and verve which feels fresh, stylish and sophisticated. -- BookTrust
No matter how often children open this book, they'll always discover something new. -- Kirkus
