But No Elephants by Jerry Smath
4.0
Grandma Tildy lives all by herself and works very hard. One day a pet salesman comes to her door with a truckload of animals and asks if she would like a bird--Grandma Tildy says yes, but "No elephants." The bird helps her and the pet man returns again and again offering different animals. She always says yes, but "No elephants." The animals work with her and make her life a little happier and easier. Until one day the pet man just leaves the elephant at her house. Now what is Grandma Tildy to do when the elephant crashes through the floor and eats all her food?
I remember loving this book as a child. I'm not entirely sure what the appeal was, but there was something. It's fun to read with a child who can quickly join in on the "But no elephants" line. Fun childhood memories.
