I'm not always a fan of classic children's books, or "life lesson" books, but this 1968 book is a keeper. It's a fable about being different. It's also just a good, interesting story. Elmer is patchwork and not grey like the other elephants, and although he's popular, he's not entirely convinced it's for the right reasons. A little... experiment is enough to reassure him about his place in the community, though. Cute and funny.
