review 1: Phil the elephant comes to town on the "Pachyderm Bus Line" bus and three kids decide to keep him. First they discover how useful he is - as a slide, playing on a seesaw, and my favorite, using his trunk to wash the dog. But then they realize they have to keep Phil a secret from mom and dad. They try a variety of solutions, but mom and dad see through it right away. Of course, they have the usual wisdom that Phil must be returned, or will mom and dad fall in love with him first?
review 2: This book is about a group of kids that find an elephant. And they want to keep him. So they hide him and hope that the grownups in their lives won’t find him or mind. Of course the kids have a great deal of fun…but the adults aren’t so sure about keeping an elephant... more for a pet. So they send the elephant away on a bus. The kids are sad. But don’t worry. The grownups changed their mind and the kids can keep the elephant. Only, the bus has left. Good thing Phil knew how to climb trees (and therefore didn’t really go on the bus). less
