began early

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

    Himalayan Kidnap

    Exciting adventure story...between the wild animals and the kidnappers, there is never a dull moment. Great book for all young adventurers!

    Staying Healthy When You Travel

    “Amusing and informative…By far the best book of this type”

    Chasing the Tiger

    Having read the first Alex and James book, Himalayan Adventure, and been left high and dry on a cliff hanger I couldn't wait to read the sequel. How would the intrepid duo fare? Would they and their equally doughty female companion survive? The book did not disappoint. It tells a pacy adventure story but is much more; interweaving, as it seamlessly does, interesting facts about Nepali culture and wildlife.
