Born Free by Joy Adamson is an intruiging book about a lioness brought up by humans and released back into the wild by the same humans she was reared by. The lioness' name was Elsa- she had two sisters that were sent to a zoo when they were about two years old. Elsa was so affectionate of her foster parents that she often had to choose between her instincts and pleasing her beloved parents. She, as a cub, chose pleasing her parents more. When the lioness grew up, though, she became more adventurous and stayed out in the wild for many days at a time. Finally, her parents decided to find a suitable home for her in the wild and try to give her back her freedom. Will they succeed?
