About Larger Than Life by Jodi Picoult
In this novella, Alice studies elephant memory on a game reserve in Botswana, observing the bonds between mother elephants and their calves. Her work comes with a strict boundary: she must watch the animals without interfering.
When Alice finds an orphaned young elephant, she must choose between that rule and caring for the calf. The decision also brings her own childhood and changing relationship with her mother into focus. Readers interested in animal behavior, family relationships, and fiction set amid wildlife research will find those subjects at the heart of the story.
