"An incredible and uplifting true story about how music has healed troubled elephants in a sanctuary in Thailand."
Short-tempered Bonti lives on an elephant sanctuary in Thailand. Temperamental, the other elephants give Bonti lots of room, and he lives a fairly solitary life. But when Paul Barton arrives with his piano, something magical happens.... for all the elephants, but especially for Bonti.
This story is beautifully lyrical, magical, ... and even more special considering it's a true story. It's an inspiring triumph, reading how music and friendship created a special bond between man and animal. This picture book touches on themes of big emotions, empathy, and the healing power of music.
A sweet and beautifully illustrated story for readers of all ages.
