With his trunk in a grump, Ernest the French elephant grumps and humphs his way through a charming (yet rather doleful) nonsense poem written and illustrated by The Original Poet Lizzie Mole.

This original rhyming poem print would be perfect for a nursery or child’s bedroom. It would also make a great bedtime story and one for kids to learn by heart.

Poem Wording

Monsieur E. Le-Phant,

the french heffalant,

was grumpy, his trunk pointed down.

His bed was so lumpy 

(he felt it was bumpy)

his sad trunk was just like a frown.

This sad heffalump,

with his trunk in a grump,

looked grumpily humpfy to me.

His humpfing and grumping

was really quite something,

the grumpiest flumper you'd see.

But though such a grump,

this big heavy lump,

a french elephlump as I've said,

would dump being grumpy

cause he was uncomfy,

and go out and buy a new bed.
