Last week, we asked area elementary schoolers to write to Kandula, Shanthi, and Ambika, the elephants who live at the National Zoo. They’re moving to a new community center this month, and we hoped that the kids might be able to offer some guidance on moving or on conservation.
Some of the best letters we receive will appear here, and three writers will be invited to the Zoo to read their notes aloud to the elephants on March 21.
Today’s featured letter comes from Lina Stensland, a second-grader at Janney Elementary School in Northwest DC. Lina is an experienced mover and glitter-application expert whose thoughtful advice we’re sure the elephants would appreciate.
