My passion for wildlife
began early

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

    50 Camels and She's Yours

    What a wonderful selection of travel writing - the 5 authors each bring a different style and unique view on the world. Hivernel's "Why Mauritania?" transported me and made me look at my own world with different eyes. Immerse yourself in some armchair travels and there are even two reflections on the difficulty of coming home.

    How to Shit Around the World

    Cute and useful book. Information is delivered in easy to read bits. Glad I found this little gem.

    Himalayan Kidnap

    An excellent story, well told, which will appeal to children and adults alike. It provides a range of observations on the local environment, wildlife and peoples of Nepal to stimulate the reader's imagination and encourage further reading on this fascinating country. Looking forward to reading Alex and James' next adventure.
