If you love Mike Curato's Little Elliot books, you will also love this adorable, soft, cuddly Elliot!  I gave one each to my adult daughter and  to two pre-school children, and they were so cute I wanted to keep one for myself.  The pre-schoolers were delighted with them, and their parents told us that they take them everywhere with them.  (Of course, they liked the books, too!)  Elliot is VERY soft and cuddly, and he's just 9" tall, which is the perfect size for a little elephant.  Elliot has special adventures and learns good lessons in the stories, and he can have more unique adventures in the home of a child who receives him as a gift.
