An orphaned boy is told by a fortune teller that an elephant will help him find his lost sister. When young Peter, who is searching for his long-lost sister, crosses paths with a fortune teller in the market square, there is only one question on his mind: is his sister still alive? The answer -- that he must follow a mysterious elephant -- sets Peter off on a remarkable journey to complete three seemingly impossible tasks that magically change the face of his town forever. THE MAGICIAN'S ELEPHANT is based on Newbery Award-winning author Kate DiCamillo's classic novel.
