"In a simple, gentle way, the author describes what it is like to be misjudged based on one's appearance and misinformation."
Kirkus Reviews
"The underlying, serious message is well-balanced by the humorous premise and continued humor in art and text…This quirky French-Canadian import stands out—rather like an elephant at an art museum."
School Library Journal
“This quirky book humorously demonstrates the danger in judging others by their outward appearances.”
Montreal Review of Books
“A story of acceptance and friendship, between a boy, his elephant, and their love for the museum.”
The Horn Book Online
“This short book has plenty of fun. Everything in the illustrations is just a little off-kilter, and much of the humor comes from the juxtaposition of the deadpan text with the slightly exaggerated art.”
