Bookroo's summary
In a unique classroom split between city and jungle, a dedicated teacher instructs both human and elephant students. These Asian elephants, with their playful love for cookies and socializing, embark on an artistic journey. As they learn to paint, their surprising talents and personalities emerge. Discover how these gentle giants, with trunks instead of hands, transform into artists, challenging perceptions and forging unexpected connections. What will they create, and how will this experience change them—and their teacher—forever?
From the publisher
I teach in two schools. One is in the city. The other is in the jungle. Some of my students have hands. Others have trunks. Elephants live in Asia. They eat three hundred pounds of food a day. They spray water out of their trunks. Even so, they are a lot like you. They like to eat cookies and hang out with their friends. They even like to paint pictures. In this true story you’ll learn about an amazing class of elephants that are taught to become artists by an amazing teacher.
