Publisher Description:

On the Serengeti Plains of East Africa the baby elephant is born into the constant love and care of her mother and extended family. But the grasses of the plains often hide hungry lions and hyenas just waiting for a young one to fall behind the others. The little elephant will have a lot of growing to do before she no longer fears predators and is able to protect another baby in the family.
