There is an Elephant in the Room!!
In Lane Smith's new book "The Big Elephant in the Room" there is something going on between two friends. One friend come in and says "Can we talk about he big elephant in the room?" It all begins there and the another friend keeps trying to guess what the elephant in the room is. "Is the big elephant that I picked you last for soccer? and baseball? and volleyball? and tiddlywinks?" The story keeps going in true Lane Smith fashion with enough humor for even the adults to enjoy his wonderful playfulness with words.
However, being a history buff my FAVORITE Lane Smith book has got to be John, Paul, George & Ben / Lane Smith. Hold on to your drumsticks Ringo... it not THAT John, Paul, and George!! It is a very interesting about five of our founding fathers. It is truly one of the BEST books with a significant amount of true historical data involved on the pages. Hey its never too early to turn toddlers into history buffs!!
Read all of Lane Smith's books... we have several!! Find them at your library!
