內容簡介

內容簡介 跟著小男孩翻閱故事書,認識大象吧(男孩房間的地毯、書櫃、娃娃也都是大象喔)!你知道大象有非洲象和亞洲象之別嗎?非洲象不管公的母的都有象牙,而亞洲象的公象有象牙,母象沒有。非洲象鼻子尾端有兩個指狀突起,而亞洲象鼻子只有一個。象牙功能多多,可以挖掘食物、遊戲甚或打架,更是象鼻休息的好地方。大象也有右撇子或左撇子:他們慣用某一邊的象牙。象牙長度可以達約8呎長,大約是2個七歲男孩身高相加。另外,大象有很好的聽力,6哩遠的地方都聽到聲音,而大象雖然體型巨大,但是它們可是用腳尖走路,因此走起路來可是很優雅的呢!這是Jenni Desmond的第三本知識書,前兩本為《The Polar Bear》、《The Blue Whale》。In this, Jenni Desmond’s third nonfiction children’s book about one of the large, endangered animals of Earth, we join a young boy as he learns about The Elephant.From Africa to Asia, the elephant makes its home. Light on their feet, despite their great weight, these magnificent creatures appear light and graceful because they’re always walking on their tip-toes. They have excellent hearing and can detect the rumblings of other elephants from six miles away. And, just like humans being right handed or left handed, elephants can be right tusked or left tusked! The recipient of the 2016 New York Times Best Illustrated award for her book The Polar Bear, Desmond creates illustrations that are scientifically accurate, strikingly detailed, and beautifully rendered in collage, paint, and colored pencil."
