Kutti, a young tribal boy, lives in a wildlife sanctuary that is home to herds of elephants. When an abandoned baby elephant is found in the sanctuary, Kutti becomes her caretaker and friend. Based on a real life incident, this moving tale is also a story of a child's growth as he learns to care for another being. Warm watercolour illustrations bring the story alive, while a section on wildlife sanctuaries and elephant reserves in India, with photographs of the elephant and the young boy on whom the story is based, make this an informative and educational read.
