Celebrate National Library Week! Books I Love: Modoc: The True Story of the Greatest Elephant That Ever Lived

1. Oh my, where to start? I l-o-v-e-d this book. It reads like a novel and yet it’s not.

2. My heartstrings were definitely pulled and I cried when I read this book. A lot.

3. Elephants occupy a huge part of my heart. While my beloved French language Babar is where the love was born, Modoc solidified my feelings.

4. Water for Elephants reminded me of Modoc. If I had to choose one or the other, I’d pick Modoc.

If you were in charge of the universe, what book would you insist everyone read?

  1. There is a true story of an Elephant named Modoc that escaped from The Great American Circus and roamed free through the town of Wabash, Indiana for 5 days in November of 1942.
    It seems like Water for Elephants has a scene from that incident.
    Modoc the World’s Greatest Elephant sounds like a great read!
