Rosemary Simm, March 18, 2007

This was the most wonderful read. Water for Elephants is the story about a young man who was orphaned and in need of finance and family during the early 30's. He found both with a second rate circus and a very hard life. Jacob met the circus owner's wife and fell in love. The circus acquired an elephant, Rosie, who was mistreated due to her not being able to perform in the circus routines. Jacob discovered the problem and went on to become Rosie's trainer. Both storylines blend together beautifully and make for good and sad times. Many years later, Jacob reflects back to the beginning and brings his story up to date. I almost passed this book by, but changed my mind and found a wonderful book.
