    Chasing the Tiger

    The second book in the series is a fun work of fiction layered upon a factual description of an exotic life in the Himalayan nation of Nepal, written by an author in residence there. The latest tale is a fast-paced and exciting adventure where the main characters encounter the local wild-life and cultures, with lovely line drawings of the animals interspersed in the text as amusing and interesting bonus material. Though aimed primarily at readers in the 8- to 12-year old age range, this book will bring pleasure to all who open it.

    a beautiful book...  an insightful account of motherhood and a fascinating portrayal of living as an expat in Nepal. I loved your attention to the natural world around you.
