    About this ebook

    A whimsical fable, set to verse, that takes the iconic Elephant and Donkey out of politics and into a child’s dreamland. The message is simple, timeless, and universal: a happy life comes from working hard, being independent, making wise choices, setting a good example, and encouraging others along the way.
