The Elephant's Cold

Joan McGrath is a Toronto Board of Education library consultant.

Douglas the Elephant, already familiar through five earlier titles, continues to amuse and instruct audiences from 3 to 6 years old. When he catches a cold, Douglas has more than the usual allotment of nose to become red and sore. Mother has sent him to bed, but Douglas sneaks out to play. When his friends beseige him with weird cold remedies and advice, he is glad to go back to bed where he belongs until his cold is better. Bright and slight.
