Elephant calves have a special bond with their mom. They stay with her for an average of 16 years! This title for young readers uses simple, leveled text and crisp photos to show these big babies eating, playing, and growing up with their herd. A list of sight words helps readers spot familiar words, while a picture glossary introduces new terms. The book concludes with facts about an elephant calf's life stages and daily activities.
