Squeak's Good Idea

Squeak, an adorable little elephant, wants to go outside, but everyone is busy. When he decides to go alone, Squeak takes along everything he might need while he is outside. Benson has created a wonderfully warm setting for this elephant family. The full page spreads show a surprisingly realistic family and neighborhood setting. A great read aloud for its predictability. Young children will relate to Squeak and his independence, and will be comforted by the love and affection shown by his family.
