If you are interested in learning more about elephants in the wild, check out this new book co-authored by Caitlin O'Connell. The book is intended for readers aged 9-12, and is filled with lots of information and photos. Students won't just learn about elephants, they'll also learn what it's like to study them in the wild. It's always great to see new books about animals in their natural habitats, and to learn about the amazing things they do in the wild. Did you know elephants "listen" with their limbs?

Check out this picture, which is based on a diagram from the book. Can you figure out what it is, and why someone who studies elephants in the wild would need it?

Find the book at your public library to learn more. Happy Reading!
