David McKee Knihy

Elmer nevyzerá ako normálny sivý slon. Priam hýri farbami, a tak nečudo, že sa mu ostatné slony posmievajú. Je mu z toho smutno. Kiežby len bol taký obyčajný! Iste by sa mu potom prestali vysmievať. Elmer sa pokúsi zmeniť… Ako to dopadne? Prečítajte si dnes už kultový príbeh Davida McKeea, preložený do 50-tich jazykov, v ktorom autor vyzdvihuje, aké dôležité je zostať sám sebou a mať sa rád aj s odlišnosťami, no vždy sa vedieť na sebe aj zasmiať.

Každý je výnimočný a má v sebe niečo, čo ho odlišuje od ostatných. Elmer nás to učí každý deň! Elmer je slon, ku ktorému všetci prichádzajú po radu. Vždy preberá iniciatívu a dokáže motivovať ostatných k činnosti. Je vtipný, trpezlivý a má povahu bádateľa. Jeho životné motto znie: „poďme to vyskúšať“, „hľadajme“, „zistime“. Sociálne zručnosti, postavenie v skupine a zmysel pre humor – to sú dôvody, prečo deti na celom svete milujú Elmera. Knihy o Elmerovi boli vysoko ocenené učiteľmi a knihovníkmi, ktorí sa zúčastnili seminárov podporujúcich čítanie ako cennú a užitočnú sériu, ktorá podporuje dobré emócie.

Nech fúka akokoľvek silný vietor, slona neodfúkne! Elmer je presvedčený, že veľké a mohutné zviera, akým je on, sa vrtochov počasia báť nemusí. Vtáčikovi sa však zdá, že to s odvahou akosi preháňa a podpichuje ho. Aby ho Elmer presvedčil, s bratrancom Wilburom opäť čosi vyhútajú. Chcú kamarátom nahovoriť, že Elmera odfúklo! Podcenia však silu neúprosného živlu, a náš nezbedník sa dočká prekvapenia.

V jedno zasnežené ráno stretne farebný sloník Elmer kamarátov, no vysvitne, že na rozdiel od neho nie sú z chladného počasia vôbec nadšení. Vymyslí preto jednoduchý plán, ako im ukázať, že zima môže byť krásna, zábavná i čarovná. Spoločne prídu na to, že veci sa javia dobré či zlé alebo studené či teplé podľa toho, z akej stránky sa na ne pozeráme.
