Elephant Island

Timmers, Leo (author,, artist.). Brown, James, 1966- (adapter.). Nagelkerke, Bill, 1958- (translator.). Timmers, Leo Translation of: Eiland van Olifant. (Added Author).

Summary: "Caught in a storm, Arnold the elephant washes up on a tiny island. Along comes Mouse in a little dingy and Arnold steps aboard...uh-oh! They use the wreckage to make the island bigger. And here's Dog, can this boat take Arnold's weight? Uh-oh! None of the animals can save the shipwrecked elephant but each broken vessel provides new materials for another intricate construction. Wheels and pulleys create a Ferris wheel, an elevator, a waffle maker. All the animals work as a team to build increasingly intricate constructions that turn the desert island into a fun park city. Soon there is a whole community and enough space for everyone!"--Publisher's website.
