In 2013, people across North America were riveted by the story of Toka, Thika, and Iringa, the last three elephants at the zoo in Toronto, Ontario. Lonely for a larger herd, sick from the cold climate, and weak from standing for long days in a toosmall concrete enclosure, the elephants desperately needed a change. The zoo and animal activists agreed that they should be moved to a healthier home, but the best optionthe Performing Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) sanctuary in distant Californiaseemed like an impossible dream. In Elephant Journey, leading activist and awardwinning author Rob Laidlaw unfolds the journey of how that impossible dream was realized. In clear, straightforward prose, he describes the elephants experiences on the journey of three days and 4,100 kilometers that brought them to the sanctuary at last. Celebrated illustrator Brian Deines oil paintings, based on actual footage of the trip, provide an intimate window into the experiences of Toka, Thika, and Iringa as they braved their long road to a new life. Extensive back matter includes an index, photographs, and further information about this miraculous Elephant Journey.

I expected more from this book given its premise. The printing quality seemed off, and some pages were slightly damaged when I received it. The story was good, but I wish it was presented better.

Perfect for Animal Lovers!
This book is a gem! As an animal lover, I found the stories of the elephants truly inspiring. The narrative is touching, and it really opened my eyes to the issues of captivity. I recommend it to anyone who cares about animals.

A Story Everyone Should Read
'The True Story of Three Zoo Elephants' is a must-read! I bought it for my niece, and she couldn't put it down. It brings attention to real issues in a sensitive way, and the illustrations are fabulous. What a great lesson on empathy!

Mixed Feelings After Reading It
I had high hopes for this book. While the story was touching, it felt like it skipped over some details that could have made it even better. Also, the delivery was slower than expected, which added to my frustration.

Informative but Lacked Engagement
While I appreciated the true story aspect of this book, it didn't hold my attention as much as I hoped. The facts about the elephants' rescue were interesting, but the storytelling felt a bit flat. It's a decent read for older kids.
