The Adventures Of Ponga
Lala Harvey
(Serenity House Publishing, Dec. 12, 2019)
A compelling and adventurous story about a young African elephant, named Ponga, who experiences various adventures while trying to prevent poachers from stealing his special gift; beautiful gold-tipped tusks that he inherited from an ancient ancestor. Ponga learns valuable lessons as his family and friends try to protect him so that he can continue the herd's legacy of courage, honor, and freedom. The book includes comprehension questions for children at the end. "The Adventures of Ponga" was written to entertain audiences of all ages, improve children's literacy, and to raise awareness about elephant poaching. Each day, approximately 100 elephants are killed by poachers for their ivory tusks. Sadly, elephants may become extinct by the year 2030 if more is not done to protect them. In that effort, the author of this book, Lala Harvey, partners with the International Anti-Poaching Foundation (IAPF) to support anti-poaching efforts around the world. A portion of all proceeds from this book will be donated to children's literacy and elephant conservation programs.Thank you for your support!
