My passion for wildlife
began early

I used to smuggle roadkill into the house despite my mother's preference for flowers.

    Your Child Abroad: a travel health guide

    “detailed manual packed with common-sense, medically accurate advice – it is probably worth buying even if you are holidaying in Cornwall.”

    Chasing the Tiger

    A rollicking adventure ... and a great follow-on to Himalayan Kidnap. It has boys who behave in the all the annoying ways boys do, and a girl to pick them up on their absurdities. It made me want to go away and search for images of the vividly described landscapes and, of course the amazing array of animals in the Himalayas. Can't wait for volume 3.
