Book Description
Everybody knows that elephants and rhinos can never be friends. Or can they? Babar's daughter Isabelle and Rataxes's son Vic aren't about to let the grown-ups stop them from playing together. But when they sneak off in a boat, the weather turns stormy and they worry they will never see their families again!

First published in 1990, this is a heartwarming story, perfect for reading at home or in the classroom.

3 out of 5 stars Can't recommend   June 19, 2008
I love Babar. I grew up with Babar, and now as a parent, I am happy to share the stories with my children, but let's face it, Babar does, on some occasions(and in my opinion) does have some subject matter that may be slightly inappropriate for kids. The original story had a death scene and a snake bite that always upset me as a kid. This story is wonderful. The art is lush and beautiful, and ultimately, the story has a nice lesson about friendship and rejecting prejudices. BUT, I am troubled by how the characters learn the lesson, particularly as the characters practcially run away from home, leaving their parents searching for them. It is because of that that I cannot rate this one higher


5 out of 5 stars YES! THIS is the corrective the Babar books need!   September 19, 2002

... The children of the two mighty rulers play and have so much fun that they forget their differences. They forget they are supposed to hate one another. Buy this book and you will reap your investment 100-fold. Enjoy!
