Let's Take a Trip . . . On Safari

This week, let's take an imagination vacation to Africa on safari.  Here are some great books featuring safari animals . . .

Tiny Little Fly by Michael Rosen
With a tramp and a roll and a swat, Great Big Elephant, Great Big Hippo, and Great Big Tiger try to capture Tiny Little Fly as he teases each one in turn.

Elmer by David McKee
All the elephants of the jungle were gray except Elmer, who was a patchwork of brilliant colors until the day he got tired of being different and making the other elephants laugh.

Kiss Kiss by Margaret Wild
Baby Hippo is in such a rush to play one morning he forgets to kiss his mama, but strangely all the jungle noises seem to remind him.

Starry Safari by Linda Ashman
Bedtime becomes a jungle safari until the Big Safari Ranger brings it to a halt.
