 | Lo ColeOur favourite little red elephant has headed stateside this month as Doris by Lo Cole was published by our friends at Boxer Books/Union Square. Selected as a Kids’ Indie next in bookshops, Doris has been garnering many fans across the pond, including this lovely review from Kirkus: "Kids will enjoy devising riffs on the word elephant and will be inspired to create their own artworks in which they try to “hide” conspicuous Doris. Doris is most endearing, and the dazzling illustrations give off an Elmer the Elephant vibe…. A witty discourse on fitting in.” |
