This is the epic story of Ishi, an African elephant who faces one last, risky journey to reunite with the humans who rescued him fifty years ago. The family that raised him and subsequently lost him is made up of a famous hunting guide and his wife, director of an animal center (a conflict that puts his marriage at risk); his two children; and the young Kikuyu, who finds the orphaned elephant and becomes part of the Hathaway clan. This absorbing novel, written by Alex Lasker, renowned Hollywood screenwriter, strikes a chord with young and old. A timeless and moving narrative that spans settings such as East Africa, Great Britain and New York.
