"My name is Glue, and I am an elephant. Which means that I’m big and grey, and have ears that flap. And a trunk. Well, to be honest my name isn’t really Glue at all, it’s Thyagaraja. Or ‘Thyaga’ for short. But I got called ‘Glue’ a lot when I was little, and the name sort of—stuck."
Humans in My Backyard is the marvellous tale of Thyaga, a young elephant, whose survival is threatened by thoughtless human exploitation. Accompanied by Vishal Menon's skillful wildlife photography, the book not only looks at the issue of the plundering of natural resources by the 'two-legged tormentors', but also beautifully captures the coming of age of an elephant.
