Specificatii
When teenaged Aaron discovers a baby elephant nearly drowning in
the swimming pool at the guest lodge where he works, he acts
quickly and manages to save the animal just in time. The rescued
baby is brought to an elephant orphanage for care, and given the
name Zambezi. Though Aaron has been raised to think of elephants as
dangerous to humans and their crops, on a visit to the orphanage,
he learns that illegal poaching of these animals is threatening
them with extinction, and the orphanage is trying to prevent that
from happening. And when Aaron is offered a job at the orphanage,
his life is suddenly transformed, as he discovers a bond of
friendship with Zambezi and his lifelong vocation as an elephant
keeper. Inspired by the real-life Aaron and Zambezi at the Lilayi
Elephant Nursery in Zambia, author Margriet Ruurs has created a
moving story that powerfully demonstrates the plight of endangered
animals everywhere. Pedro Covo's stunning illustrations add a level
of depth and haunting beauty to the story and the animals. Three
nonfiction spreads interspersed throughout the story explore facts
about elephants, ivory poaching and elephant orphanages. The back
of the book contains ways children can help endangered wildlife.
Useful tools include a table of contents and a glossary. This
beautifully illustrated nonfiction book spans the curriculum, from
life sciences to global awareness to environmental stewardship. It
also offers a unique perspective for character education lessons on
empathy, caring and responsibility on a larger scale.
