After seeing elephants paint in Thailand in 2010, the author returned to make a painting with an elephant. This book is the story of how this collaboration unfolded, from the initial bonding with the elephant to the final art piece. A great book to read aloud with a child. This is a children's book for adults to read with a child. They can share the wonder of getting to know an elephant by bathing, feeding, riding and painting with the elephant. Children and adults can watch the painting process, from the first lines drawn to the finished painting. If you love elephants, you will love this book!
