Description
This is an award-winning story in Amazon.com's 'Breakthrough contest' of 2007. It is a dynamic and emotional story which will bring laughter, and then tears, a story of love and hope like none other. A touching and unforgettable story of 7-year-old Howdy Spires, who needs a friend but finds a lost elephant. Frightened at first, he runs for cover. The elephant doesn't. Howdy talks to it. 'Are you lost? Will you be my friend?' The elephant pulls up a tuft of grass, tossing it at Howdy. He giggles, and the friendship begins. They swim the river, play bagpipes, conduct a dead-bug funeral, sleep in the barn. He names the elephant Mimi. He discovered a secret which he never told anyone, that he and Mimi could communicate through mental telepathy. He loved Mimi, and Mimi loved him... yet this boy had to defend this friend in a way that no young boy ever should have to do. This truly is a story you will never forget. The child within you will resonate with this story.
