Albert the Elephant: a Tale of Difference, Disability, Bullying, and a Bold Resolution to Fit in

Albert is not only a runt, he was born with an extra long trunk - a trunk that makes him feel ashamed and ostracized, so Albert runs away to the city. Unfortunately, his troubles continue as people and other animals tease and humiliate him. Then one morning, Albert has the opportunity to turn his "disability" into a very special "ability." Will Albert finally find the friends and respect he craves? Trey Martin's Albert the Elephant delivers a very special message about being different and finding one's special talents in that difference. His book is a personal triumph and celebration over being differently-abled in our public education system. Albert the Elephant is a must-read for every school age child (and parents, too).
