Watch Out for the Elephants! By: C. Angela Todd & C. Ann Todd You can achieve anything you want to – just Watch Out for the Elephants! The year was 1945, and the lives of black Americans showed little sign of improvement. We were still relegated to third-class status–forced to sit at the back of the bus, to drink from separate water fountains, to take only those menial jobs the white population considered beneath them. In sharp contrast, that same year, our father became only the 11th black man “permitted” to join the United States Foreign Service. His first posting was Cairo, Egypt, where he was sent as a Civilian Security Guard. For the next 35 years, our family traveled the world, moving from country to country and culture to culture, where–perhaps surprisingly–we lived very ordinary lives in very extraordinary settings. We have always considered our unusual upbringing a distinct privilege, and feel that this privileged background entails the responsibility to pass along important life lessons to others, such as: · If our parents could do it as black Americans living abroad in 1945, you can achieve anything you want to in the 21st century and beyond! · There is a big, beautiful world out there beyond your own personal boundaries, and we want to share some of the world’s wonderful people and cultures with you through our stories and pictures. · As you travel though your life, always remember to Watch Out for the Elephants!--regardless of what shape or form they might take! It is our dream that this book will open the hearts and minds of young people to the endless possibilities and wonders of diverse cultures and ways of life. It is our hope that these stories will highlight the strength of the human spirit that is possible despite sometimes overbearing obstacles, such as the prejudices that our parents faced. It is our conviction that the world of opportunities is open to everyone. Remember: If you can dream it, you can achieve it!

Elephants are a keystone species and have been a part of the magic of the thickly forested land of South Africa for millennia. This book focuses on the history and work of Knysna Elephant Park, a leading South African elephant research facility that has been home to more than 40 elephants in 25 years. Unfortunately, all the mystique of the Knysna elephant has been reduced to a single elephant left alive. Exploring a wide range of topics, this book covers the impact of elephants' interactions with tourists, how they recover from trauma and even their relevance in human healthcare. Renowned elephant researchers explain the majesty of the elephant brain, which has the largest temporal lobe devoted to communication, language, spatial memory and cognition. To this effect, the book emphasizes the threat of poaching to these gentle giants, which has almost forced them to extinction. Perhaps if humans pay attention to how elephants symbolize our relationship with nature, we can learn important lessons about humanity itself.

You've heard the saving, `the elephant in the room', meaning an issue that is impossible to overlook (no matter how hard you try!). The strange thing is, all of us seem to concentrate and focus only on these big issues, thinking that if they are worked out and sorted everything else will be fine. While that might be great in theory, what you really need to look out for are `the fleas', the small issues. These little, pesky and annoying things in life have the ability to become quite large over time, possibly as big as elephants, and so they need to be overcome and eradicated before they do. Justin Herald tackles the areas that are most likely to be the fleas in your life, so you can recognise and resolve them before they grow into larger and more difficult-to-handle problems. It's the small issues that create the big problems, so Forget the elephants, watch out for the fleas.
