The title of this "book", as you can see, is Panush. Panush is the exiled, older sister of Tingle, and this is not her story. This story happens to be about Tingle, from her birth into Boltar's herd, to her death when she finally finds her sister, with the famously graceful trunk.   

There is more to the story, though, as there always is. On her journey to find Panush, Tingle befriends a...special Gorilla named Gorbash; a philosopher with a forked tongue and no legs named Ha-ssuu; and an odd couple of monkeys named Uncle Chukkor and Wizzer (who seems to think it doesn't really take wings to fly...).

You don't have to be an adult to appreciate this wonderful book and you don't have to be a child; you only have to know how to read!
