Description

---

The Author draws us into the potential tragedy of their disappearance from the wild, through her own anguish at what is happening to the most extraordinary and inspirational of creatures.It is a book for young and old, and The Tale of Timbo and Balbazar, the elephant spirit, leads us back to an ancient past and on to safety from an uncertain present. If the Ivory gleam one day disappears from Africa, it will be a tragedy of unimaginable magnitude.Kimberly Kay Day understands that well and tries, through this "Brave Little Tale" to make sure that we understand it too. The only creature that should carry Ivory is the elephant.By Virginia McKenna, Founder of The Born Free Foundation in the UK.
