Tua has always wanted someone to love like a sister. In a busy market in Chiang Mai, Thailand, she finds something close: an elephant with wise eyes, a curious trunk, and a desperate need for help. Pohn-Pohn is trapped by cruel captors, and Tua cannot simply walk away. Freeing an elephant is only the beginning. To reach safety, the two must move through crowded streets, hidden corners, and sacred spaces while staying ahead of danger. Tua is small, but she is clever, stubborn, and brave enough to keep going. Tua and the Elephant is a heartfelt middle grade animal rescue adventure about courage, friendship, and compassion. Set in Thailand, it blends suspense with tenderness as one determined girl discovers how powerful a bond between a child and an animal can become.
