Elmer is very excited because today is the fancy dress parade. But some of the animals are missing! Can Elmer find them in time for everyone to join in the fun? Go on a World Book Day adventure with this brand new tale by David McKee. Somewhere on every page is also a special question – answer each one to become a part of Elmer’s parade!

Elmer and his cousin Wilbur are going to the parade, but the other animals have not yet arrived. The butterfly thinks she is too tiny to take part, the lion is sad, and the rest of the missing animals are stuck in the river. Elmer and Wilbur help them all, and together they reach the start of the parade. Everyone is dressed in rainbow colours except Elmer. On that day only, he goes as elephant-coloured. A lovely book that celebrates diversity.

My favourite part is the last page where all the other elephants and animals are colourful, except for Elmer.

It wasn't amazing but it was 't bad so I gave it a 4. I loved the fact that it had little questions at the bottom of each page.
