This is a beautifully written and engaging story that will touch the hearts of children and adults alike!" Patricia Mitchell Editorial Director, The Word Among Us Press and author of Living as a Beloved Daughter of God "Gigantic and gentle, Irene the elephant personifies the notion that, when one relies on God for guidance, weaknesses become strengths and hopeless situations become powerful moments of peace and possibility.

AUTHOR'S WEBSITE http: //geriguadagno.com/ ABOUT THE ILLUSTRATOR: Jeffrey C. Zwartjes studied illustration at the Savannah College of Art and Design and eventually fell into the world of theater and puppetry in Atlanta, Georgia. He can often be seen carving a big puppet head out of foam, or singing on stage dressed as a dog, or doing any number of odd things, always feeling especially blessed to be doing what he loves. He lives happily with his wife, a Children's Librarian who always brings home wonderful books for them to read together, and many well-meaning cats.
