Beautifully illustrated throughout with drawings by Dee Wallace. "Everyone loves elephants. All circuses have them. All zoos try to have elephants. Everyone knows that elephants are among the smartest of the animals. In wild life, too, the elephants are smart. They live in groups, they take care of their children, they avoid danger. From the great world of elephant stories, which fills many books, we give here some true accounts of just what elephants have done. Each story really happened. If you find these stories quite wonderful, you will want to get some of those other books about elephants and read them." (from the Foreword). Seller Inventory # K111513
