本书以犀牛苏丹的真实经历回顾了他的一生,故事中有三次断角:第一次是苏丹在童年目睹了妈妈被偷猎者断角,屠戮的过程;第二次是苏丹在捷克动物园,不小心在木栅栏上撞断犀角,犀角重新长出来,但是因为不需要挖草根,不需要战斗,犀角慢慢老化成一个圈;第三次是苏丹回到非洲,自然保护区的人为了防止偷猎者杀害苏丹而先行锯掉了苏丹的犀角.犀角具有很强的象征意味,每一只犀牛都是自己领地里的国王,而犀角就是他们的王冠.而苏丹最大的悲伤,就是象征他身份和骄傲的犀角,不能和他的身体完整地共存.

This book tells the story of Sudan, the last male Northern White Rhinoceros; who the author and illustrator visited in Kenya in 2016.

The story tells of 3 broken horns: the first one when Sudan's mother was attacked by poachers; the second broken on the wooden fence of a Czech zoo. With no need to fight or dig grass roots, it re-grew, and was broken again when Sudan returned to Africa. The people in the nature reserve sawed off Sudan's horn, in order to prevent poachers from killing Sudan.
