About this product

Product Information

What is your favorite thing to do in the whole world? Whatever it is, odds are that you don't like doing it as much as the elephant in this book enjoys smashing small cars. He'll smash any small car that drives down his road. He smashes yellow cars, he smashes blue cars, he smashes red cars, all the while singing a special car-smashing song. Then one day a man comes to town and opens a small-car store right on the elephant's road. You can probably guess what the elephant does next, but the real fun starts when the man turns the tables on the elephant--and his plan is a smashing success. Jean Merrill's story of gleeful destruction, revenge, and conciliation is accompanied by Ronni Solbert's colorful crayon drawings. Rarely has property damage looked so adorable.

Reviews
"From bubble wrap to bugs, the urge to smash and smush seems to be a part of the human condition. Just think of that group of four-year-olds building towers of blocks and then merrily knocking them down. Or those older kids bashing into each other during recess. Here's a wonderfully subversive little book that captures the joy of that impulse and highlights the results. A perfect read aloud for all ages." --Monica Edinger, author of Africa Is My Home and proprietor of the blog Educating Alice

Dvd arrived quickly and well packaged and taken care of. The item was listed as acceptable and met all of my needs but here's a quick description of what I got: Some wear is visible on the plastic sleeve on the outside of the case. The inside leaflet was still there! The disk has about 3 very notable scratches, although none are bigger than about 2 centimeters. Little to no grime anywhere on the product. Great service!
