Description Illustration of a poem by Kenn Nesbitt:

"My Elephant Thinks I'm Wonderful"

My elephant thinks I’m wonderful.
My elephant thinks I’m cool.
My elephant hangs around with me
and follows me into school.

My elephant likes the way I look.
He thinks I’m fun and smart.
He thinks I’m kind and generous
and have a terrific heart.

My elephant thinks I’m brave and bold.
He’s proud of my strength and guts.
But mostly he likes the way I smell.
My elephant thinks I’m nuts.

This is such a sweet picture. I like how the boy doesn't take advantage of the elephant (and ride it).

Bet he has bananas in his pockets.

As they sometimes say, "the fastest way to an elephant's heart is through his stomach!"

I'm glad you liked it!! Thanks!
