A great read !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a very cute little story of an elephant becoming comfortable with who he is meant to be. The characters in this story help Sooki the elephant realize he is just fine the way he is. It's an easy read with a sweet ending. Nice illustrations as well.

Cute, sturdy book and a lovely story -- but beware; this version's abridged!

I have loved this book since I had it read to me many years ago, and am excited to share it with my own child. A word of caution, however, regarding the "Little Golden Treasures" version -- it has been abridged from the original! A purist like myself will prefer a copy of the full version. I may still pick it up for our child sometime down the road. The story is a lovely one and the pictures are beautiful.

Shaggy Baggy Elephant

The book came very quick & in great shape. But I found the book at Walmart for less.

A nice message

After 60 years (this book was first published in 1947) this story still has a nice little message about being yourself, and expressing your talents.

Golden Books are Awesome

I read this to our son, sadly, after he "out grew" these books, they were passed on. Happily, after searching all over I found these treasures on Amazon and now have a new collection for our beautiful grand daughter to enjoy.

After a parrot makes fun of Sooki?s big ears, long nose, and wrinkled skin, the ?saggy baggy? elephant isn?t too sure of himself. But once he meets some beautiful creatures who look just like him, Sooki celebrates with a joyful ?one-two-three-kick.? For over 50 years, parents and children have treasured this tale, with gorgeous art by Gustaf Tenggren, the illustrator of The Poky Little Puppy.
