The Elephant And The Tree

The elephant and the tree are the best of friends, who spend many happy times together as they grow up. Unfortunately, one fateful day, they are united as well in being victims of human exploitation - tourism and deforestation.

Set uniquely in black and orchestrated in a tuneful rhythm, this book is about the endearing friendship between and elephant and a tree.

It is hard to miss out too on the message of conservation; of the natural interdependence of all living things; and perhaps of what humans can do to safeguard and avoid disrupting this flow of nature.

The writer is one of six chosen out of 34,000 applicants worldwide to learn natural history filmmaking in an original Animal Planet series. Her passion and compassion for animals certainly justifies the Animal Planet's selection, and are unmistakably the motivation for writing this book.
