Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2200 KP) rated Elephants Cannot Dance! (Elephant & Piggie, #9) in Books

Mar 9, 2018

Piggie is teaching all her friends to dance, but Gerald might prove to be a bit of a challenge. Lots of laughs and a sweet ending make this one a winner.

They have been calling this "Water for Elephants meets The Night Circus." Since I've never read either of those books, I could enjoy it for what it is - historical fiction, woman's murder mystery with a touch of magical realism. You can read my review of this novel here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2015/03/10/illusions-and-elusions/

Eric Ripert recommended Cent Elephants Sur Un Brin D'Herbe in Books (curated)

"This book, whose title translates as “100 Elephants on a Blade of Grass,” begins with His Holiness’ moving Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech. It was the first serious book on Buddhism that I read, and it inspired me to learn more about the philosophy. I attribute most of the qualities I have today to the spirituality and teachings of His Holiness."
