The Magician's Elephant

The Magician's Elephant by Kate DiCamillo, Candlewick, 2009.



DiCamillo uses omniscient third to put the reader in everyone's mind, including the elephant. The vague location and lack of an exact time add to the fairytale feel of this story that is sure to charm readers.
 
Here is a video of DiCamillo reading the first chapter
