KEYNOTE From the author-illustrator of Abbeville's Big Cat, Small Cat comes a second rhyme-completion concept book, teaching children about colors through bright landscapes of loveable elephants. I Dream of an Elephant takes readers through a wondrous world where they will encounter elephants of many colorful shades that sing, dance, and play. Each page's descriptive sing-song text leaves out the last word, allowing little ones to chime in and complete the rhyme while learning a range of colors. Amusing color-themed illustrations provide clues for the words that have been left out. I Dream of an Elephant teaches children about colors with a fun, fill-in-the-blank challenge that encourages participation. Accomplished illustrator Ami Rubinger once again turns his humorous and imaginative eye to an otherwise simple subject. His colorful elephants will make little faces smile, and the rhyming game will have them learning words and colors. AUTHOR: Ami Rubinger, born in Jerusalem in 1953, began his career as an illustrator for the daily newspaper Ha'Aretz.

He is currently an illustrator and cartoonist for the daily newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth. Rubinger has written and illustrated over 15 books, including many children's titles, and has won numerous awards for his work. ILLUSTRATIONS 15 full colour *.
