When her mother bids her goodnight, Ella is already fast asleep Part of a series of four elephant-shaped board books which deal with toddler experiences. Created by Karen Wallace, and beautifully brought to life by Rebecca Harry's illustrations, Ella is a very special character, whom young children will love.
