Tonga: The African Elephant Story
Debbie Buttar was born and raised in the South Hills of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Debbie currently resides with her husband and their young son, as well as stepson and stepdaughter in Huntersville, North Carolina. Debbie is inspired by animals and places that help them. Tonga, her first book, was inspired by an elephant sanctuary in Tennessee after she told a similar version as a bedtime story.
