Chained

This is a big-kid realistic fiction story written by Lynne Kelly and set in India.  (FIC KEL) A boy takes a job taking care of an elephant training to be in a circus to help pay off his younger sister's medical bills. He disagrees with the treatment of the elephant and makes a courageous decision to change not only his life, but that of the elephant, too.  It is a beautifully written, touching story of friendship, courage, and duty.
