Are you short or tall or skinny or fat? Does this bother you?The author, Leela Hope, has written a fun story about Ernie the elephant. Ernie was small for his age, but it did not bother him until he went to school. At school the other elephants were all bigger than Ernie. One of the bigger elephants made fun of Ernie, and told the other animals that no one should play with Ernie. When Ernie went outside no one paid any attention to him and this made him sad. The next day, no one would play with him, and he started to cry. Ernie went into the woods crying,a small mouse named Martin came out to see what the noise was all about. When you read this book you will discover what happens.Parents/teachers will enjoy reading this book to their children. The children will all be able to identify with Ernie, and will be able to understand what Ernie is going through. It may help them to be more kind to other children. The lessons learned in the author's books are a big plus for children. The illustrations are bright, vibrant and colorful. They depict the trials and tribulations of Ernie. I like this series of books about Ernie the Elephant and Martin the Mouse. Note: a complimentary copy of this book was provided to read and review.Recommended. prisrob 06-16-15
San Diego, California Author Leela Hope studied English Literature at Berkeley, earning a degree in 1989. Her writing covers a span of several genres, but she always returns to her first love, children's fiction. And it is there that her star shines brightest. Always finding something unique on which to base her stories, she makes each tale a learning experience for children as well as offering some pointers for parenting!Leela introduces Ernie the Elephant (who has appeared in her other stories) – a small elephant who could perform tasks like other elephants. Despite family support Ernie endured a lot of teasing and bullying at school by the larger elephant Henry who didn’t like Ernie because he was too small. Ernie is sad, leaves school during recess, meets a little mouse named Martin who points out that being small isn’t a bad thing. Martin liked Ernie because to Martin, Ernie is not small. Martin convinces Ernie that he can lift logs as long as he can believe in himself. Now Ernie has self-confidence and goes back to school feeling ‘cool’. His little mouse friend gave him confidence and inner strength.Another beautifully illustrated and fun and educational book from Leela Hope. Grady Harp, June 15
This is an adorable book about standing up to bullies and learning to believe in yourself. This story is a tale of two friends, an elephant and a mouse. Through the eyes of a little mouse, the elephant learned to believe in himself. By doing so, he overcame the bully at school. This book could lead to discussions with young children about being strong, learning kindness, looking at things from another perspective.
The Ernie the Elephant stories are fun illustrated stories for children that feature a little life lesson, as author Leela Hope's anthropomorphic characters face the same kinds of issues that human youngsters have to deal with. In this - the first story in the series - young Ernie was small for his size and wasn't as strong as the other elephants, so they called him "Shorty" or "Ernie the Elf." Tired of all the teasing, Ernie ran away. Fortunately he met tiny Martin, a mouse who helped Ernie with his self esteem. Martin was pretty smart, but would he be up to convincing Ernie that he was as good as the other elephants? That's the big question in "Ernie the Elephant," a story that teaches valuable lessons about self esteem and friendship.
This is the first book in Leela Hope's fun and educational series of books about Ernie the Elephant and his friend Martin the mouse. Her books teach children how to overcome matters that bother them.Ernie is small and Martin is much smaller, but they are friends. This book tells how they met and came to love one another.Other elephants at Ernie's school teased Ernie because he was small. This bothered Ernie even though his dad assured him that he would soon grow tall and strong. Then a big bully classmate elephant told all the other elephants in school not to play with Ernie. Ernie cried and went walking in the woods. This when he met Martin who solved his problem.
I found this to be a very interesting and yet encouraging news to share with young kids especially. it even some older kids and adults could be encouraged and inspired by reading this. It also had some very colorful illustrations great for early and beginner readers who loves to read animal adventure stories,too! This is why I have given it five stars. I received this ebook for free and in return am giving it an honest review! Great job Leela! By Angela L . May I be one of you her readers? I just need a free review copy for each ebook,ok? Thanks Leela! Contact me in Goodreads!
Ernie is an elephant who is teased for being small. He feels bad until a tiny mouse named Martin shows him that being small is not so bad.Children being teased for their size will be able to relate to Ernie. Those who aren't, might learn a lesson that teasing isn't a nice thing to do. Ernie the Elephant has colorful illustrations that kids will enjoy, and a message that parents will want their kids to learn. The story is in rhyme which, while cute, is a little uneven in places. There are a couple of typos as well. Still, it a story that children ages 3-7 will like.
