$7.64 $8.99

The Bird and The Elephant starts with an introduction and is then broken up into 10 poetic discussions. It also features 11 beautifully drawn illustrations.

A bird is flying high one day when he decides he needs to take a rest. He glances down below and aims for a large rock. But it isn't a rock He shockingly discovers he's landed on an elephant's back. They begin having a conversation. The bird is impatient and hot headed while the elephant is calming and wise. Through their discussions the bird learns a lot about life and ultimately, himself.

The discussions are:

  • Who are we?
  • Where do we come from?
  • Why are we here?
  • Friendship
  • Why do bad things happen?
  • Happiness
  • Morality
  • Destiny
  • Love
  • Philosophy
