About This Book

When a pet salesman comes by, kindly Grandma Tildy takes in one animal after another - a canary, a turtle, a puppy. But when the last animal is an elephant, she draws the line. Left outside in the cold, the shivering elephant eventually wins her heart, leading to a wonderfully surprising solution for everyone.
