Illustrated by
Peter Gouldthorpe.
More than a hundred years ago, a young Indian elephant was captured and brought to the Melbourne Zoo. Queenie led a sedate life as a crowd favorite until inexplicably crushing her keeper and, tragically, being put to sleep. The sad narrative may call for adult reassurance and will likely provoke thoughts on zoo ethics. Gorgeous acrylics lend the creature gentle personality.
