Growing up in A Real Life Jungle Book

Tippi And Her Elephant Friend

When she was one, Tippi and Abu met for the first time. Although Abu was huge in comparison to the tiny child, Tippi had no fear. She would look into the elephant’s eyes and have a normal kiddy conversation with the animal. It was almost like they could actually communicate, as if Tippi was a tiny Dr. Doolittle. The friendship between the two developed so quickly that her parents were amazed. Their friendship would last for years.

Growing Her Circle Of Friends.

Another friend that Tippi had was a leopard called J&B that had been adopted by a farmer in the area after his mother died in a trap. J&B acted just like a domesticated cat around Tippi but as a wild animal, he never lost his instincts to hunt and kill. One heart-stopping occasion, J&B attacked another child and Tippi stepped in and told him to stop. Unbelievably, J&B did just that and ran off. The other child was saved from a gruesome attack.
