Discover
the story of Cha-bah, a young elephant who lived with
her mother in a beautiful forest until one day her happiness
was ended when she was taken to the city where she was
forced to work. She longed for the joy of her natural
home. But what she missed most was her mother. “What
happened to my mother?”, she wondered while walking
along the hard, polluted roads, and “What will happen
to me…?”
Inspired by the sight of a baby elephant
lost in the big city of Bangkok, Busara Boussard, a
nine-year-old Thai-Belgian girl, tells this enchanting
story. She was so moved by the tears in the eyes of
the baby elephant on that day that she knew she would
try her best to help elephants to stay out of the city
and to live peacefully in the forest.
