Description

Emily Brown and the Elephant Emergency features Emily Brown, Stanley the bunny, and Matilda the elephant as they embark on thrilling adventures. However, each time they reach an exciting moment... Ring! Ring! goes the Emergency Telephone. It's Matilda's mummy, fretting that Matilda isn't wearing her wellies, or eating properly, or is at risk from almost anything imaginable. Can Emily Brown convince her that sometimes adventures are beneficial?

This brilliant title from the award-winning team is a witty and poignant exploration of the importance of spending quality time with your children and allowing them to explore the world around them.
