Description
An Elephant in My Kitchen: What the Herd Taught Me about Love, Courage and Survival
After falling in love with renowned conservationist Lawrence Anthony, Françoise's life took an unexpected turn. When Lawrence passed away in 2012, Françoise was left to run Thula Thula, a South African game reserve, with little experience in conservation. Despite the challenges, Françoise found a way to thrive, thanks to the support of the elephant herd that Lawrence had rescued.
This heartwarming and poignant book tells the story of Françoise's journey as she navigates the ups and downs of running a wildlife reserve, while forming a deep bond with the elephants. From the rescue of a baby elephant that finds its way into Françoise's kitchen, to the care of a baby hippo with a snare wrapped around its face, this book is a testament to the power of love, courage and survival.
