Picture Book Wednesday: Baby Elephant Joins the Herd

A baby's born into the elephant herd. Watch as she grows up and begins to find her place in the world.

I adored this book - the photographs are amazing. I loved learning more about elephants. This is a fabulous book that's perfect for both school and public libraries - and will engage readers in early elementary school. 

Favorite Banned Books

From my Childhood:

I read this book a lot and loved it each time.


I read this book until it fell apart. I still have it. We also chose this book for our Halloween read last year for the 4th and 5th grade book club


From the college years:

I fell in love with this series at the end of the first chapter and have been hooked ever since.


From life as a teen librarian:

I'm a sucker for ANYTHING Meg Cabot writes (she's the reason I'm a teen librarian - no seriously)


This is SUCH a powerful book, every teen should read it


No only do I love this book, but I love the cover (which some bookstore refused to stock)


Hilarious series, I laughed my way through this one.


I could go on and on...but I'll stop with these
