Trunk Trouble

Ellie the elephant has a very long trunk — and today, it is causing a great deal of trouble.

Ellie's trunk keeps getting in the way of absolutely everything: it trips up her friends, knocks things over, and makes the simplest tasks into comic disasters. But when the time comes for it to really matter, that very same trunk turns out to be exactly what's needed.

Trunk Trouble is a warm little story about accepting the things that make us different — and discovering that what feels like a problem is sometimes a gift. Patricia Forde's rhyming text bounces along cheerfully, and Gwen Millward's illustrations are full of warmth and gentle comedy.

Just right for young readers who enjoy their stories told in rhyme, with animals at the centre and a feel-good ending that earns its happiness.
