Kids will be fascinated by these gentle pachyderms and will discover how they use their trunks, the herd’s social structure, and the threat posed by poachers and the ivory trade.

This work is for ages 6-12. As the world's largest land animals, elephants inspire awe in all of us - an awe that has led to myths of might and memory. Despite its immense strength, however, the elephant is a timid creature that uses its power only to defend itself against predators. Kids will learn many facts about these gentle pachyderms, including: the social structure of elephants, in which the female is the leader; the animal's many, dextrous uses for its trunk; the history of the elephant's even larger ancestors, including woolly mammoths; the dangers that poaching, loss of habitat, and the ivory trade pose to the elephant's future.
