Himalayan Hideout
In "Himalayan Hideout," Jane Wilson-Howarth masterfully transports readers to the breathtaking landscapes of the Himalayas. Her descriptions of towering peaks, cascading waterfalls, and dense forests evoke a sense of wonder and reverence, reminding us of our interconnectedness with the earth and the importance of preserving its fragile ecosystems. Overall, "Himalayan Hideout" is a captivating read, while Jane’s lyrical prose, coupled with scholarly insights make this book a true gem

I read this book in one sitting finding it impossible to put it down.
This adventure story is set in Nepal with two boys as the main characters though there is also a no nonsense female character for whom the boys have great respect.. It is pacy and full of unforced information about the flora, fauna and culture in Nepal. As with James Bond the boys get into impossible situations and like him (thus far) they manage with ingenuity, luck and humour to extricate themselves.
Were I not retired from my position as a school librarian this book would be be heading for the library shelves. As it is, the grandchildren will benefit.
