Elephant Modokku of miracle (2000) ISBN: 4062099608

The bond between humans and animals is so powerful in this memoir. I'm curious what motivated the author to tell Modoc's story in particular.

The memoir made me feel like I was right there with Modoc through all his adventures. Did others feel the same sense of connection?

The story spans decades and many events. I wonder what guided the choices about what to highlight and what to leave out.
