Subject: RE: Folklore: Need - The blind men and the elephant
Well, checking my library's catalog, I found two versions in the children's collection:

Seven Blind Mice by Ed Young (1992) I think this was an award winner, so it's likely available in your library as well. Pretty too.

and

Blind Men and the Elephant by Lillian Quigly (1959) Less likely to find, as it is an older title.

In the adult section, try the Dermis Probe by Idires Shah. It's the title story, obviously.

You might also want to drive your librarian nuts by seeing if she can track it down as a poem. I've got to go and do a program at my library now, so I don't have time to track it down that way right now.
I'll see if I can find anything later. Good luck.
