Book Description
Deep in the Central African Republic, forest elephants trumpet and rumble along with the forest’s symphony. And scientists are listening. Scientist Katy Payne started Cornell University’s Elephant Listening Project to learn more about how forest elephants communicate and what they're saying. But the project soon grew to be about so much more. Poaching, logging, mining, and increasing human populations threaten the survival of forest elephants. Katy and other members of the Elephant Listening Project’s team knew they needed to do something to protect these majestic animals. By eavesdropping on elephants, the Elephant Listening Project is doing its part to save Africa’s forest elephants and preserve the music in the forest. Author Patricia Newman takes readers behind the scenes to see how scientists are making new discoveries about elephant communication and using what they learn to help these majestic animals, with QR codes linking to audio of the elephant sounds. Follow along and listen to the elephants as scientists learn what they are saying.

Book Description
Elephant lover Ellie has had a love of elephants since birth. She naturally gravitated to anything and everything regarding elephants. She has a room full of elephant toys, always receives elephant knick knacks as gifts, and she reads as much as she can about elephants. She even dreams of being a large animal vet, with a specialty of treating elephants. As part of her love, she has traveled to Sri Lanka, Thailand and Nepal to see her beloved elephants up close and personal. What she learned through experience, was a sad realization of how poorly treated elephants are, and how the tourism industry, one she herself was once a part of, is causing sad situations for this beloved creature. However, what she also found, were dedicated organizations committed to making a difference. This book came to be out of one little girl's pure love for elephants, her own encounters around the world, and her desire to raise funds to support organizations looking to provide better solutions.
