Believe it or not, elephants used to be able to fly. But flying elephants were big trouble… This lively retelling of an Indian folktale has easy to read text and fun puzzles to try after the story. How Elephants lost their Wings is in the Usborne First Reading series, written especially for children who are learning to read, and developed in consultation with Alison Kelly, Senior Lecturer in Education and reading specialist at Roehampton University. With delightful illustrations, these books combine great stories with simple text to excite and inspire any beginner reader.
