The Gentle Elephant Who Says "Slow, Slow, Strong"

By: Yuguchi, Masanori

The Gentle Elephant Who Says "Slow, Slow, Strong" is a calming and inspiring children's picture book that teaches patience, inner strength, and self-confidence.

In a wide, sunny savanna lives a gentle elephant who is kind and caring, but often feels pressured to move faster like the others. When things feel rushed or overwhelming, the elephant remembers powerful, steady words: "Slow, slow, strong."

With each calm step and repeated phrase, the elephant discovers that moving slowly can be a source of strength. Patience helps the elephant stay balanced, make good choices, and support friends along the way. The story shows children that strength does not always mean speed-it can also mean calm, care, and confidence.

Written with soothing repetition and a steady rhythm, this book is perfect for read-aloud time, bedtime, and classroom moments. It encourages emotional regulation, mindfulness, and resilience in young children.

Ideal for ages 3-8, The Gentle Elephant Who Says "Slow, Slow, Strong" is a meaningful story for families, educators, and as a thoughtful gift for children learning to embrace their own gentle strength.
