Here is a Sad but Ultimately Victorious story of deaf elephants. The plight of deaf elephants has been largely unrecognized by even the most caring pachydermatologists, but William Benton's goal is to change all that. These deaf heroes of the animal kingdom face constant danger and must endure the thoughtless prejudice of their cared counterparts. Even zoos shun them. Yet through it all they prevail: They fall in love, they dance to their own imagined music, and they face the world courageously. As you immerse yourself in this story, you will find yourself enthralled with the deaf elephants' huge, brave hearts.
