Kofi, a young elephant, was born with a knot in his trunk. His disability keeps him from eating, drinking, and trumpeting as other elephants do. His peers bully him, and Kofi feels isolated and inadequate. When he discovers Big Ebo, the meanest bully, caught in a whirlpool, he faces a challenging decision. Should he attempt to rescue the bully? Can succeed? Should he even try? As in her other award-winning books, Patz's lively watercolor and pencil paintings show clearly the emotions of the characters and bring Kofi's story to life.
