Being Anastasia

About the Book

Being Anastasia is about a carefree elephant that whined and didn’t like to listen to her parents. When her mother would ask her to do things around the house, like picking up her toys and cleaning her room, she would whine and say she was sorry. She had three friends that would come over and play with her: Patty, the squirrel; Kammie, the skunk, and Wilbur, the groundhog. Anastasia would take them on many adventures because she had a hard time listening. Anastasia’s mother baked some cookies and told her not to touch them because they were too hot. Her stomach would make a loud noise to tell her she had to have one of those cookies. Anastasia and her friends will learn the true meaning of listening.
