The wonderfully eccentric adventures of a kind-hearted elephant, hugely enjoyed by children and adults alike, by J. P. Martin and illustrated by Quentin Blake. A classic in the great English nonsense tradition - Observer Uncle is a millionaire elephant who has a B.A. and wears a purple dressing gown.
