Elephant Wellyphant
by
Nick Sharratt
Illustrator: Nick Sharratt
Most youngsters would recognise a big, grey, wrinkly elephant, but what about a green and red, spotty Unwelliphant or a clairvoyant Gypsy Fortune-Tellerphant?
A Chocolate Caramelephant is wrapped in red, shiny paper and looks delicious but you really don't want to know what the Rude Smellyphant is doing!
In this colourful and robust interactive novelty book, Nick Sharratt explores the wonderful world of fantasy elephants with the help of a little paper engineering.
Full of humour and ingenuity, the bold, fun and expressive illustrations and rhyming text will charm adults and youngsters alike.

Nick liked drawing from an early age. 'When I was nine,' he says, 'a picture that I'd drawn at school was pinned up in the hall, and the husband of one of the teachers saw it and offered me five pounds to do a similar picture for him. That's when I decided I was going to be a professional artist one day! I nearly always drew in felt tip pens then, and I liked drawing big crowd scenes. I'd start in the bottom left-hand corner of the paper and just let the picture grow, telling myself stories about each of the characters in turn as I drew them.'
