Have you ever imagined a parade of elephants marching down the streets of New York? Well, it has already happened! Can you believe that? We’ll learn about this amazing event while reading Twenty-one Elephants and Still Standing. Afterwards we will craft elephant ears and trunks so we can have our own parade!
Twenty-One Elephants and Still Standing by April Jones Prince and Illustrated by Francois Roca, 2005.
