Book Description
Perhaps you met Winnie the Pooh! Perhaps your heart was swept away when Cinderella married the prince. Maybe you stayed up late, dreaming of Santa on The Night before Christmas! Have you checked your closet Where the Wild Things are and called your mother in the middle of the night? Or did tears roll down your face when Humpty Dumpty had a great fall? Now, the beloved characters of classic African folklore can enthrall you! They will equally delight your heart with humor, wisdom, and life lessons that have enchanted African children in centuries past. You will discover in this book why elephants are scared of the mice. Dinah Senkungu was born and raised in a village deep in the heart of Uganda, passionately recalling spending her early preschool days drawing on the ground and learning life’s lessons from the native folklore told to her by her elder relatives. She shares with modern children how long ago, the children of Ugandan villages would gather together around the fire in the evening moonlight to listen intently to the grand mysteries of their vibrant land and heritage through the retelling of vivid African folklore. She brings knowledge of the beautiful and timeless quality embodied in cultural folklore with her as she endeavors to enlighten her students. Dinah has taught English in both elementary and high school abroad. She is currently teaching in the United States of America and working on a doctorate degree in Education. She is also actively involved in improving the educational conditions in her native country. She participates in funding and purchasing of educational material for children in Uganda.

Book Description
Why have elephants—and our preconceptions about them—been central to so much of human thought? From prehistoric cave drawings in Europe and ancient rock art in Africa and India to burning pyres of confiscated tusks, our thoughts about elephants tell a story of human history. In Elephant Trails, Nigel Rothfels argues that, over millennia, we have made elephants into both monsters and miracles as ways to understand them but also as ways to understand ourselves. Drawing on a broad range of sources, including municipal documents, zoo records, museum collections, and encounters with people who have lived with elephants, Rothfels seeks out the origins of our contemporary ideas about an animal that has been central to so much of human thought. He explains how notions that have been associated with elephants for centuries—that they are exceptionally wise, deeply emotional, and have a special understanding of death; that they never forget, are beloved of the gods, and suffer unusually in captivity; and even that they are afraid of mice—all tell part of the story of these amazing beings. Exploring the history of a skull in a museum, a photograph of an elephant walking through the American South in the early twentieth century, the debate about the quality of life of a famous elephant in a zoo, and the accounts of elephant hunters, Rothfels demonstrates that elephants are not what we think they are—and they never have been. Elephant Trails is a compelling portrait of what the author terms "our elephant."

Book Description
This book pays tribute to the unrecognized warriors and unsung heroes of human warfare: millions of animals from a surprising variety of species, ranging from rodents to dolphins to llamas. When one thinks of war, armies of soldiers and assaults with bullets and bombs delivered by deadly machinery typically come to mind. Throughout human history, however, animals have also played significant roles in our armed conflicts. In Animals in the Military: From Hannibal's Elephants to the Dolphins of the U.S. Navy, author John M. Kistler examines these contributions, describing the work of animals in human warfare throughout time, from lowly insects to birds to elephants. Drawing on both ancient and modern sources, the book reveals the full scope of heroics and horror committed by—and against—animal warriors in three unique areas: animals in combat, animals in support, and animals in incidental and experimental roles. Each chapter describes a single species, chronologically recounting its fascinating place in human warfare over time, from insects used as stinging projectiles to message-delivering pigeons.
