Follow along with the adventures of a giant elephant and a mischievous baby in this timeless picture-book story. When an Elephant meets a Bad Baby and offers them a ride, it's the start of a wild adventure - going 'rumpeta, rumpeta, rumpeta' down the road, and helping themselves to ice creams, lollipops, and all manner of sweet treats. But as a long line of disgruntled shopkeepers and salespeople begin to follow them, Bad Baby learns the importance of saying 'please,' and all the trouble you can get into if you forget . . . Elfrida Vipont worked as a teacher, singer and writer.

She wrote over 30 books and won the Carnegie Medal in 1950 for Lark on the Wing.

Raymond Briggs has produced wonderful children's books including the classic titles The Snowman, Father Christmas and When the Wind Blows - all made into immensely successful films.
