Five Minutes' Peace by Jill Murphy

In this delightful and heartwarming tale, a mother elephant named Mrs. Large yearns for just a few moments of tranquility away from her bustling and energetic children. She attempts to escape to the bathroom with a tray of breakfast treats, a newspaper, and a soothing bath in mind. However, her well-intentioned plan is quickly interrupted as her three little ones eagerly follow her, each bringing their own unique brand of chaos and charm. Despite her best efforts to find solitude, Mrs. Large discovers that the love and presence of her children, though sometimes overwhelming, are what truly make her moments special.
