Tua and the Elephant

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Taeeun Yoo. Tua, a go-getting Thai girl, goes to great lengths to save an elephant from its abusive owners. With her community's help, she repeatedly outsmarts the buffoonish duo until she finally gets the elephant to safety in an animal sanctuary. Warm, two-color linoleum block print illustrations accompany a sweet story that incorporates many details about Thai culture.
