It Is a Tree

Funny animals play a party game that''s both silly and thought-provoking. Perfect for new readers.

It is a tree. It is a wall. It is a snake. It is a fan.

A zebra, a giraffe, a turtle, and others play a party game. Blindfolded, they guess what''s in the room. Is it a wall? A rope? A fan? No. It''s an elephant!

This very easy-to-read story, based upon the ancient Indian parable about the blind men and the elephant, teaches point-of-view.
