March 2021 'ELEPHANTS ON PARADE' Unboxing!

We celebrated all things elephant with our March 2021 ELEPHANTS ON PARADE box!

We had such a great time curating this delight box featuring books and goodies focused entirely on Earth's largest living mammal.

Our March 2021 book pick was The Elephant in the Room by award-winning author, Holly Goldberg Sloan. This inspiring contemporary story is all about family, being separated from loved ones, and the heartwarming impact of human-animal connections.

"Sila has had an unbearably hard year since her mother left for Turkey to secure her immigration paperwork. But things start to change when she meets a kind old man and a beautiful creature named Veda."

Our first edition hardcover book also included a signed bookplate and a special author letter from Holly herself.
