Toto
• Genre- Realistic Fiction
• Point of View- Third Person
• Author’s Purpose- Entertain
Concern for others can help us overcome own
fears and take risks.
There is a boy named Suku, who is called a coward
because he is afraid to walk through the bush with only
a spear for his protection. Instead, Suku stays in the
village where it is safe.
Toto, the elephant, on the other hand, has no fear at
all. He strays far from the safety of the animal reserve
and falls into a trap set by poachers.
Who will take the risk and have the courage to help
Toto?
