The book is going to be published soon next year.
Thanks for the lovely preview!
The cover confused me on this next one for a second there. Tua and the Elephant is written by R.P. Harris but it’s illustrated by the remarkable Taeeun Yoo. Naturally when I saw that Yoo was involved (if you’ve seen her Only a Witch Can Fly then you know what she’s capable of) I assumed that we were talking about a picture book here. Nope. With 204 pages and a recommended reading age of 8 to 12 this is a chapter book with illustrations. In it Tua (“Peanut” in Thai) wants a sibling. When she makes the acquaintance of an abused elephant she decides to rescue it. Consider this a road trip novel with elephant. Might make a nice companion to Michael Morpurgo’s An Elephant in the Garden.
