A Glimpse of Eternal Snows
I read this book in almost one sitting. Even stopping for a cup of tea seemed a distraction. It is a sad tale but ultimately very uplifting. It shows the nature of love and loss. It is written by author who loves Nepal and this shines through. Brilliant book.
Chasing the Tiger
The adventures of Alex and James continue on as they brave hunger and every kind of wildlife in Nepal in order to rescue their kidnapped conservationist parents. Young readers are introduced to Nepal's past, a time when real-life kidnappings of conservationists occurred. Not only will readers learn about the history of Nepal and the rich wildlife and foods there, they will be reminded of the grit it takes to stand up for what one believes. Beautifully told and illustrated, a real treat!
