Overview

When Lavender the elephant drops into Ella's bedroom to play, Ella explains that Mommy needs them to stay tidy for an afternoon tea party. But that's a big ask for a little kid. Quiet activities soon escalate to exciting ones - ending in a magnificent mud-pie mess! Will the playful pair get clean in time for tea? Bursting with colorful, adorable art, Me & Lavender is a delightful, debut picture book that celebrates the joy of pretending and begs to be read aloud. Ella and Lavender's whimsical antics and loving friendship will remind readers of Christopher Robin and Pooh, and little listeners may begin to imagine their own favorite stuffed animal as a life-sized friend.
