Somehow, the elephants got into my soul, and it became my lifes work to see them safe and happy. There was no giving up on that vision, no matter how hard the road was at times.

Françoise Malby-Anthony is the owner of a game reserve in South Africa with a remarkable family of elephants whose adventures have touched hearts around the world. The herds feisty matriarch Frankie knows whos in charge at Thula Thula, and its not Francoise. But when Frankie becomes ill, and the authorities threaten to remove or cull some of the herd if the reserve doesnt expand, Françoise is in a race against time to save her beloved elephants . . .

The joys and challenges of a life dedicated to conservation are vividly described in this charming and moving book. The search is on to get a girlfriend for orphaned rhino Thabo and then, as his behaviour becomes increasingly boisterous, a big brother to teach him manners. Françoise realizes a dream with the arrival of Savannah the cheetah an endangered species not seen in the area since the 1940s and finds herself rescuing meerkats kept as pets. But will Thula Thula survive the pandemic, an invasion from poachers and the threat from a mining company wanting access to its land?

As Françoise faces her toughest years yet, she realizes once again that with their wisdom, resilience and communal bonds, the elephants have much to teach us.
