review 1: Who isn't absolutely fascinated by elephants? Every new thing I learn about them reinforces for me what incredibly intelligent and empathic creatures they are. This book focuses on how elephants communicate, particularly with sound, and describes how Caitlin O'Connell did the experiments that gave her this information.

The pictures were breathtaking and the cover drew me in as well, it was kind of mysterious looking. The intended audience for this book is one of grades 3-6. less
