Giveaway: The Little Elephant with the Big Earache (Dr. Hippo Book) [CLOSED]

Welcome to the third week of the Dr. Hippo Book Giveaway Event, where we are giving one book away each week from the Dr. Hippo Book Series. Go here to read my review of the entire series. This week we are giving away the book The Little Elephant with the Big Earache by pediatrician and mom to three Charlotte Cowan, M.D.


This book tells the story of an elephant who wakes up with an earache the day after relatives arrive at his house to celebrate his birthday. This book shows that, although he missed out on a little bit of fun, ultimately he is able to attend his own party on his birthday because he followed the doctor's orders and rested. This book also illustrates for both parents and children that antibiotics are not needed for every case.

My 5yr old son's thoughts about this book:

My son said his favorite part of the book is the mud elephant sculpture that the main character created together with one of his cousins. I think he found it to be very impressive compared to the sculptures he had made himself in the past out of sand. All the Dr. Hippo books are very easy for children to relate to as far as their own experiences are concerned.

If you'd like to purchase this or other books in the Dr. Hippo Series, you can find them at your local bookstore and on Amazon.com .

One person will win the book The Little Elephant with the Big Earache (bonus Parent Guide included).
