Diana Canova
She's younger than Babar, shyer than Lily, and every bit as cute as Olivia. Look out! Here's ELLA!
Ella's counting the days until the first day of school ... but not because she's eager to start! On the contrary, as the littlest elephant on Elephant Island, she's terribly nervous about the other kids she'll meet. Then she receives a beautiful red hat that belonged to her grandmother -- her new lucky charm. Big mean Belinda at school teases her for it, calling her "Ella the Elegant Elephant." But Ella's brave enough to hold on to her hat, and in the end, the hat (and her heart) save the day. With warm, rich pictures and a charming main character, ELLA is sure to be a new favorite.

Diana Canova's vibrant, enthusiastic performance bristles with energy in Carmela and Steven D'Amico's enchanting Ella the Elegant Elephant, the story of a shy and diminutive elephant who relies on a gift from her beloved grandmother to help overcome relentless schoolyard bullying by the antagonistic Belinda.
Canova's pitch-perfect delivery enlivens this beautifully simple tale that puts a unique spin on familiar childhood themes, and the sparkling score coupled with evocative, cinematic sound effects will appeal to children of all ages.
