Elephants Remember

DOWNLOAD Classroom Guide

 

From the author and illustrator of The Eye of the Whale, this is the nonfiction picture book story of Lawrence Anthony and the wild animal reserve he created in Zululand, South Africa. The deep bond between this visionary man and the traumatized elephants he saved is at the heart of this story. When Lawrence died, elephants gathered outside his home from remote parts of the reserve to mourn him, and they returned on the first and second anniversaries of his death—because elephants remember.
