Comedy, friendship and suspense

When an elephant appears on Erica’s doorstep, she says that the elephant will have to go to the zoo because she doesn’t have a licence.  I found this book really exciting but a bit sad too.  Erica is the main character who lives by herself in a terraced house by the sea.  Oliver is supposed to be her friend.  Miss Pritchett is Erica’s next door neighbour.  I didn’t like her at first, but I did by the end.

Overall, this book was really good.  The usual friendship was described and it was a mixture of comedy, friendship and suspense.  I recommend it because the plot is interesting, the illustrations are good and the book is amazing.
