One Baby Elephant is a clever counting book, centering on animals native to Africa. Using fun-to-read rhymes, each page leads the reader from one animal group to another until the animal friends gather together. Giraffes, zebras, monkeys and more are beautifully illustrated throughout this fanciful story.

Bonnie Lemaire created the gorgeous illustrations for One Baby Elephant with a wash of brilliant watercolors. To contact her or purchase her beautiful paintings and giftware, visit her website at bonniella.com

"Hanson has done it again! One Baby Elephant is not your ordinary counting book. The charming verse and stunning illustrations make this book a classic that will be read aloud nightly (and daily!) to your little ones. The African animals are illustrated in a warm and friendly style and the rollicking verse begs to be read aloud. This book would make a charming gift for any child in your life."

"My children absolutely LOVE this book!! I am a homeschool mom and this is the perfect book for bedtime stories AND for learning!! My kids can't get enough of it. They make me read it to them over and over again, then they spend time on their own looking at the wonderful illustrations. I HIGHLY recommend this book! We put it right up there with Goodnight Moon!"
