Everyone is excited about the chance to perform a solo in the class recital-except Elephant. How will she deal with her anxiety and stage fright Elephant' s Big Solo is a warm and sensitive celebration of meeting life' s challenges while staying true to who you are. This picture book will be adored by fans of The Rabbit Listened and Little Elliot, Big City. Elephant' s favorite class is music. She loves playing the French horn and performing with all her friends. But when Ms. Gator suggests that everyone play a solo at the school concert, Elephant hesitates. The thought of performing alone makes her heart race and her stomach twist. Luckily, Elephant thinks of another way to perform a solo; one that allows her to shine alongside a full orchestra of her friends. Sarah Kurpiel' s accessible text is pitch-perfect and her expressive artwork is irresistible. Elephant' s Big Solo explores social anxiety in a sensitive and thoughtful way, always assuring young readers that Elephant stays true to herself. Readers will applaud when Elephant gains the confidence to show her true talents. Elephant' s Big Solo is an excellent choice for social and emotional learning, as well as story-time sharing.
Sarah Kurpiel is a librarian and self-taught illustrator from the Midwest who is inspired by nature, animals, and antique books. Lone Wolf is her debut. Sarah Kurpiel uses a power wheelchair and considers her disability an important part of her identity.
