Elephant Moon is more than Hemingway's Elephant
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
In 1998, I read Earnest Hemingway's short story "Hills Like White Elephants" and since then, I have devoured as many manuscripts pertaining to Elephants as possible. In my reading about Elephants, I have had the extraordinary pleasure of discovering Bijou Le Tord's Elephant Moon. The soft and delicate illustrations of such powerful animals attracted and charmed me from the start. I liked the flow from the page of well researched facts to the majestic journey through the hills of East Africa. There was no deception on Le Tord's part. Even though she was writing for young children, she did not attempt to make her elephants Sunday tea drinkers. She keeps the elephants the majestic and powerful creatures that they are. It is books such as Elephant Moon that will teach children to appreciate and embrace the beauty of endangered animals.
