Zoya and Naru

A tender, often amusing, take on the age-old African story of nature and humankind existing together in mutual respect. Their conversations are filled with beautiful African proverbs and life lessons that raise awareness of the plight of Elephants and the need to protect them.

The text, by Caroline Montague, is evocative of the African bush, its people and wildlife and their vital importance in the fast-disappearing, natural world.

Beautifully illustrated by the artist Richie Ryall, this book which will appeal to adults and children as a compelling tale of friendship, courage, and hope in the face of adversity.

Published in partnership with Elephants Alive, Zoya and Naru is a book that will raise awareness of the plight of elephants and the urgent need to protect them before it's too late. Elephant lovers and conservationists are currently working against time to tackle the ivory trade, and to create new corridors for animals to move safely across borders as they once did.

We are all, as this poignant story reminds us, custodians of our precious environment and the wildlife of Africa. This marvelous book, with its backdrop of survival in the wilds of Africa, makes our duty crystal clear.
