That's Not Normal
Age range 3 to 6
Elephant has an exceptionally long trunk and Hippopotamus never tires of telling him that 'That's not normal!'.
A laugh-out-loud story about differences, acceptance, kindness and friendship.
A White Ravens selection.
Whether helping old monkey climb a tree or keeping Giraffe's neck warm on a cold day, Elephant is always ready to lend a hand, or rather a trunk…an exceptionally long trunk!
An uplifting, fun story about individuality, self-acceptance and being yourself.
'A good anti-bullying story.' – This Kid Reviews Books
'Well-plotted, beautifully illustrated with a beautiful message about embracing our differences. ….That's Not Normal has a lesson that every person, young or not-so-young needs to constantly hear to by happy in our everyday life.' – Midwest Book Review
'Elephant is blue, animals move on two legs and talk to one another, and Zebra has removable stripes — all of which underlines the text’s implied messages that normality is highly relative and it is not a good idea to ridicule those who are different.' – Booklist
