Echo and the Magical Whispers — Paul Haston

Echo is an ordinary elephant with a magical gift. She hears the voices of dead elephants. Long Horn's tusks must be saved from the poachers or a great flood will destroy the land. Echo and the Magical Whispers and its successor, Lost Echo are Books 1 and 2 in The Whispers Series, a magical realism about elephants for Middle Grade children (aged 9-12) and adults who are big kids at heart! Profits from the books go to Elephants for Africa, a registered charity in England & Wales and a registered NGO in Botswana. Echo and the Magical Whispers won a silver medal at the 2015 Moonbeam Children's Book Awards.
