My family was relocating to a new neighborhood and into a brand-new house. Everyone was very excited and ready to go, except me and my pet elephant, Wendell.

The new neighborhood doesn’t allow pet elephants. How can they make such a decision and not welcome Wendell when they have never even met him? If the new neighborhood doesn’t welcome Wendell, perhaps they won’t welcome me either?In this vibrantly, colorful children’s book, author Michael Kayes explores how moving can be a challenging experience for children - and pet elephants too! Along the path to the new home, Wendell proves he is helpful, kind and can make friends no matter where he lives.

This tale about moving with children will delight your little ones and teach them coping and social skills along with the value of friendship and acceptance. This book puts a positive perspective on relocating with children.
