It's a rainy day so the boy and his elephant, Émile, decide the perfect way to pass their time is with a trip to the museum. Their problems start before they even walk through the doors. First, what door does an elephant fit through? And second, why does the grumpy guard assume they are going to cause problems? It seems like as soon as they start to enjoy an exhibit, he's right there yelling at them not to touch anything. Like they would ever do that! Then, in a flash everything changes and suddenly Émile and the boy find themselves in a very precarious situation. Will the guard be right about these two after all?

through tall grasses and thorny bushes while on safari in four African countries. Along the way, I slept with hippos grunting outside thin bedroom walls, faced down an elephant, and watched my husband almost lose his life for a hot breakfast. I came to respect the intelligence of hyenas, the hunting skills of leopards, the bravery of mother hippos, the sensitivity of elephants, and the raw power of lions--the unrivaled kings in this world. Gliding through the clear waters of the Okavango Delta took birding to another dimension. I encountered birds light enough to walk on lily pads, others tall enough to look me in the eye.I savored the kindness of people in rural villages, saw the desperation and hope of squatters living in "informal settlements" outside cities and found myself in awe of their courage and ingenuity. In Soweto and Johannesburg, with its gold and saffron colored air, I traced apartheid from its inception to its demise. I came away with greater knowledge of a continent, its treasures, and its people. In An Elephant at My Door, I share this special world with readers through stories wrapped up in safari adventure.

When the Peace Corps sends Susana Herrera to teach English in northern Cameroon, she yearns to embrace her adopted village and its people, to drink deep from the spirit of Mother Africa—and to forget a bitter childhood and painful past. To the villagers, however, she’s a rich American tourist, a nasara (white person) who has never known pain or want. They stare at her in silence. The children giggle and run away. At first her only confidant is a miraculously communicative lizard. Susana fights back with every ounce of heart and humor she possesses, and slowly begins to make a difference. She ventures out to the village well and learns to carry water on her head. In a classroom crowded to suffocation she finds a way to discipline her students without resorting to the beatings they are used to. She makes ice cream in the scorching heat, and learns how to plant millet and kill chickens. She laughs with the villagers, cries with them, works and prays with them, heals and is helped by them. Village life is hard but magical. Poverty is rampant—yet people sing and share what little they have. The termites that chew up her bed like morning cereal are fried and eaten in their turn ("bite-sized and crunchy like Doritos"). Nobody knows what tomorrow may bring, but even the morning greetings impart a purer sense of being in the moment. Gradually, Susana and the village become part of each other. They will never be the same again.
