Everywhere But the Shower

What do three fuzzy blue stuffed elephants do when their favorite kid leaves for school?

Jude is four and a half. He has already lived in Abu Dhabi, Singapore, and Connecticut. He has crossed deserts, flown over oceans, and made friends in countries most grown-ups only dream about. And he does it all with a big smile on his face.

But his three stuffed elephants, all named Yaya, are not quite as brave. The moment Jude walks out the door, the Yayas set off on their own wild adventure: the zoo, a boat, an airplane, a restaurant, a bicycle, and even a library. They try everything Jude does. They get wonderfully, hilariously messy. And then they discover the one place they cannot handle: the shower.

A warm, funny picture book about courage, curiosity, and the little companions who remind us that being brave looks different for everyone.

Perfect for ages 3 to 6 and anyone who has ever loved a stuffed animal a little too much.
