From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 2 In Caple's winsome first book, children will meet Eleanor Elephant and easily empathize with her problem: she has the biggest nose in her school. Eleanor's attempts to be like everyone else are depicted in engaging watercolors which will enable children to share her realization that everyone has at least one attention-drawing attribute. The size, illustration and text make this a reachable picture book alternative to the "I Can Read" format for primary level readers, as well as a fine selection for story hours.

The Biggest Nose,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Biggest Nose (Hardcover)
The Biggest Nose shows us to be happy with ourselves. It relates this message in a comical way. It shows that you have flaws, but so do others. A very good book with a very good message. Very well written.
