AGAINST ALL ODDS
Erin Wrenn and her friend David are in big trouble because they refuse to go on a field trip to the Glitter Tent Circus. They wrote a report on the sad lives of circus animals, and discovered that the Glitter Tent Circus is one of the worst animal abusers of all.
Mrs. Dawson is determined to give her students the happy circus experience she remembers from her childhood; she won't let Erin and David share their report or pass around a petition asking for a different field trip. Erin is determined to force Mrs. Dawson to change her plans -- or she'll stage a sit-in at school.
Then Erin sees an even bigger problem: Lilly, a mistreated elephant, is about to be sold to a hunting park. How can she save Lilly before it's too late? It seems impossible!
Can one girl -- and a class of sixth-graders -- make a difference?

Saving Lilly is about two kids that know that the circus that the class is going to is mean to the animals there. They saw the elephant Lilly in chains and getting stabbed by bull hooks when Lilly would not move. Those kids did research on that circus and found out that that circus has a record. The teachers nephew is the manager at the circus so she had free tickets to the circus. This book is a good book, if you want to know what else happens then you will just have to read Saving Lilly.
