Eddie the Elephant who Lost his Trunk is the fifteenth book that George has written for children. Like with all of his other stories, this one tells of an animal who has something taken from him, leaving him with a disability. Eddie is left angry at the one who took his trunk. But with help and love from his friends and family, and the decision to understand the ways of alligators, he is able to live a long and happy life, free from anger and resentment. His story shows us that we can rely on those we love, and that choosing to understand our enemies can bring some relief to the heart.
