Little Elliot, Big Fun
In this third story of Little Elliot and Mouse, the friends head off in search of adventure . . . and lots of fun!
Little Elliot, the polka-dotted elephant, and his friend Mouse go to the amusement park to see the sights and ride the rides--water chutes, roller coasters, carousels, and more. But Elliot isn't having much fun--the rides are too wet, too fast, too dizzy, and just plain too scary--until Mouse figures out a way to help him overcome his fears. Together, Mouse and Little Elliot can do anything!Book Details

Praise for this book
"It's a gorgeous vision of summer in the city, as well as of small steps with big payoffs." --Publishers Weekly, starred review on Little Elliot, Big Fun
"A bravura celebration of the healing effects of acceptance and friendship." --Booklist, starred review, on Little Elliot, Big Fun "This beautifully designed title is perfect for units on friendship, New York, or summer vacations. Sure to be a hit at a Big Fun storytime." --School Library Journal, on Little Elliot, Big Fun "Young children will easily relate to Elliot's experience of loneliness and his relief at inclusion, both convincingly captured in this elegant tale." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review, on Little Elliot, Big Family "Curato fleshes out Little Elliot's personality in this installment - there are glimmers of a character with real depth beneath his cutie-pie visage - while continuing to come up with wonderful, Hopperesque images of a bygone New York." --Publishers Weekly, starred review, on Little Elliot, Big Family "* [Curato is] a terrific emerging talent, with gorgeously rendered images that bring to mind the moodiness of Chris Van Allsburg and the sweetness of William Joyce." --Publishers Weekly, starred review on Little Elliot, Big City "* Curato, a debut author and illustrator, tucks several gentle messages into one simple story that's perfect for the age group. . . . Happily, expect to see more of him." --Booklist, starred review on Little Elliot, Big City "A tiny, spotted elephant tackles the challenges of city life. . . . The simple story is told in 17 short sentences that allow Curato's magnificent 1940s-style illustrations to carry the tale." --School Library Journal on Little Elliot, Big City
