Do you have a favourite story book character? Kids, it might be from a book you have just read. Parents, it might be a character you can remember from your childhood.
When I was younger, my favourite thing to do was to head down to my local public library on a Saturday morning and sit and read, and read, and read! My favourite story book character was Babar the Elephant. Do you recognize him?
The Babar book series was written and illustrated by Jean de Brunhoff.
