"When an elephant falls in love, he does many foolish things." So begins the narrative of this charming little picture-book, which chronicles its elephant-hero's many besotted actions, from hiding behind trees when his beloved appears, to leaving flowers on her doorstep. Will she ever notice him, he wonders? Then she proves that she too can do foolish things... Originally published in Italy as Quando un elefante si innamora, this delightful picture-book contains the third story I have read from author Davide Cali, but the first I have seen from illustrator Alice Lotti. It manages to be both humorous and heartwarming, with a simple but expressive text, and droll illustrations that capture the humor of the story. Recommended to all young elephant admirers, and to anyone who has ever fallen in love. ¿Qué ocurre cuando un elefante se enamora? Hace de todo para llamar la atención, se baña todos los días y escribe cartas que nunca envía. Pero cuando menos se lo espera... Un cuento original y conmovedor que describe los síntomas del comienzo de una historia de amor, y las posibles consecuencias. Algo que le puede pasar a cualquiera. ¡Incluso a un elefante! geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

The elephant reminds me of an angsty teenager who. He's not sure he is noticed so he eats cheesecake and sighs at the clouds. Yes. I'm serious. He also tries to dress to impress. See the message that we are promoting?
So why do I say it is darling? Well, the illustrations are lovely in their soft pastels. It is a calming book. And in the midst of "in your face", subtlety is a good thing. ( )
