"The imperial elephant, known far and wide as one of the grandest sights in the kingdom, hasn't been the same since the old Emperor died. One day a rich merchant's son decides he wishes to see the magnificent animal for himself. What he discovers is that the elephant is having terrible trouble sleeping. Can a spoiled boy who is not used to doing things for others find a way to solve the riddle of the elephant's insomnia? This soothing story by Diana Reynolds Roome, based on a bedtime tale invented by her father after his travels in the East, is charmingly illustrated by Jude Daly, whose distinctive style has won her admirers around the world." -From the Publisher
