      Eine neue fröhliche Bilderbuch-Geschichte zum Vorlesen mit dem bunt karierten Elefanten und der liebenswerten Tante Thea, die ein bisschen vergesslich ist: „Elmar, Tante Thea sucht dich!“, rufen die Tiere im Urwald. „Sie möchte dir etwas geben.“ Ein Geschenk? Aber es ist doch gar nicht Elmars Geburtstag und Weihnachten schon gar nicht! Aber vielleicht ist Tante Thea ein bisschen durcheinander, denkt Elmar. Gemeinsam mit seiner Freundin Rosa macht Elmar sich auf die Suche nach seiner Tante ... Elmar ist ein ganz besonderer Elefant: kein bisschen elefantenfarben, sondern bunt kariert! Elmar ist anders – und das ist gut so! In seinen Geschichten zeigt er Kindern, wie schön es ist, dass nicht alle Menschen und Tiere gleich sind. Mit Elmar hat David McKee unvergessliche, wertvolle Bilderbücher über Themen wie Akzeptanz, Verständnis und Toleranz geschaffen – ganz ohne erhobenen Zeigefinger. Und deshalb gehört der kunterbunte Bilderbuchheld mit seinen lustigen Streichen in jedes Kinderzimmer. Es gibt noch viele andere tolle Elmar-Bücher: Elmar - Mein Zahlensuchbuch Elmar Elmar und die Gutenachtgeschichte Elmar feiert Weihnachten Mein Elmar Freundealbum Elmars Farben Elmars Freunde Das große Elmarbuch Elmar und die Nilpferde Das neue große Elmar-Buch Elmar: Mein Mal- und Mitmachbuch Mein erster Elmar Gute Nacht, Elmar!

    • Elmar, der bunt karierte Elefant, hat einen neuen Freund! Die anderen Tiere platzen fast vor Neugierde, wer es sein könnte. Sie fragen Elmar ein Loch in den Bauch, doch das Geheimnis wird erst ganz zum Schluss gelüftet. Ein pfiffiges Pappbilderbuch mit einem Spiegel, durch den Kinder selbst zur Hauptfigur dieser Geschichte werden (Neuausgabe von ISBN 3-522-43439-0). David McKee wurde in Devon geboren. Noch am College begann er damit, Cartoons an die Presse zu verkaufen. Nachdem er das College verlassen hatte, behielt er das bei, um sich ein Zubrot zur Malerei zu verdienen. Er zeichnete z. B. regelmäßig für „Punch“, "Reader's Digest„ und die Ausbildungsbeilage der “Times„. Seine Zeichnungen waren besonders von Saul Steinberg und Andre Francois beeinflusst. Heute lebt und arbeitet er in London und Nizza. McKee hat verschiedene Charaktere erfunden und in Bücherserien entwickelt, u. a. auch “König Rollo„. Die berühmteste und erfolgreichste Figur ist aber “Elmar", der bunt karierte Elefant. Die Elmar-Bücher wurden in mehr als 20 Ländern veröffentlicht. Er hat Fans auf der ganzen Welt. Wann David McKee Elmar erfunden hat, weiß er nicht mehr genau. Er kann sich jedoch noch gut daran erinnern, dass er zu dieser Zeit unter dem Einfluss von Paul Klee gestanden hat. Elmar ist damit nicht nur der bunteste aller Elefanten, sondern auch der mit dem berühmtesten Paten.
