Ready, Steady, Jump! by Jeanne Willis & Adrian Reynolds

Lion can jump. Monkey can jump. Giraffe can jump. Elephant can’t jump. Elephant tries many different ways to jump, but not matter how hard he does, he still can’t do it like the other animals can. The others laugh at him as he repeatedly fails. Then one day they stop laughing when they realise he has a skill none of them has: strength. This is a lovely book, encouraging children to recognise their own unique qualities and celebrating the joy of being different.
