From the creators behind the Eisner-nominated Saving Sorya: Chang
and the Sun Bear comes another gorgeously-illustrated graphic novel
adventure based on a true story, in which young conservationist
Chang overcomes the odds to save and return an elephant to its
natural habitat. While volunteering at a wildlife rescue center
near Yok Don National Park in Vietnam, Chang helps rescue an
injured and abused Asian elephant named H'Non. For decades, H'Non
was forced to haul heavy timber logs and concrete poles at
construction sites, and then to carry riders at tourist attractions
all day long with no break. While nursing H'Non back to health,
Chang is tasked with finding a kind mahout—an elephant
trainer—who will teach H'Non how to fend for herself in the wild.
Though Chang initially has her doubts about the young mahout she
finds, a boy named Wat, H'Non takes to him instantly. And as her
friendships with both H'Non and Wat grow, Chang learns what it
means to give people a chance, to show up for your friends, and to
love openly and forgive compassionately. *“Stirs the mind and
heart the way an elephant quakes the earth.â€â€”Kirkus Reviews,
