Laurent de Brunhoff’s Babar and His Family is a lively adaptation of the classic picture book Meet Babar and His Family . Join this royal family on a year full of adventures! Whether they’re sailing the summer seas, building snow elephants, or enjoying a surprise ice cream treat with Cousin Arthur, these elephants sure know how to have fun. Babar was called by the New York Times a “beloved storybook character,” was praised by Where the Wild Things Are creator Maurice Sendak as “at the very heart of my conception of what turns a picture book into a work of art,” was featured in USA TODAY , which said, “Few series have had such enduring appeal to young readers,” and cited in The New Yorker , which wrote, “There are a few parents who haven’t tried the Babar books, and the rare small child who doesn’t like, or even love them.”
