The great elephant Mae Jabu turned her head from side to side and flapped her ears as she plodded along the track from the village to the beach. There was no birdsong that morning. Everything seemed strangely silent. Before the sun set that day a huge wave would engulf her world and sweep away all that she had ever known, and Mae Jabu would be a hero.
