About this ebook
In Eric's house there were too many elephants - in the living room, in the kitchen, in the bathroom, even in his bedroom!
The elephants take up a lot of space, but Eric loves every one of them. So when his mum says they have to go, Eric comes up with a clever solution to a very BIG problem . . .
From the creators of The Terrible Plop comes this delightfully energetic story, full of fun and exuberance.
