My passion for wildlife
began early

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

    Lemurs of the Lost World

    “this book fleshes out the ups and downs of the expedition… it is useful, lively background reading for anyone contemplating an expedition anywhere.”

    Madagascar Misadventure

    Madagascar Misadventure is the fourth book in the series by Jane Wilson-Howarth featuring Alex and James adventures as they are travelling through Madagascar because their parents are wildlife activists. I have listened to the previous books as well.
    I like hearing about all the wildlife in this book like lemurs and foosa and scorpions for example.
    I like that James and Alex and Claude have a sense of humour and I like listening to them banter. Also I like how James and Alex care about each other even though they don't always get along.
    I like that it is interesting hearing about the Madagascar culture and curses that they believe in.
    The story is enjoyable and the characters face a lot of threat so this makes the reader want to know what happens next.
    The recording was done well and is very clearly read.
