Synopsis of An Elephant in the Garden

En 1944, Elizabeth vive en Dresde, Alemania, con su familia. Su madre trabaja en el zoológico de la ciudad, donde su animal favorito es una elefanta joven llamada Marlene. Cuando el director del zoológico decide que los animales peligrosos deben ser sacrificados para evitar que escapen durante los bombardeos, la madre de Elizabeth decide esconder a Marlene en su jardín. Sin embargo, los bombardeos comienzan y su casa es destruida. La familia se ve obligada a huir a través de un paisaje invernal, evitando a las tropas rusas que se acercan. La situación se complica aún más por la presencia de Marlene, la elefanta, a quien deben proteger a toda costa. Esta conmovedora historia de Michael Morpurgo, autor de 'War Horse', narra la extraordinaria aventura de una familia y su elefante en tiempos de guerra. Un relato sobre la valentía, la amistad y la esperanza en medio de la adversidad.
