My passion for wildlife
began early

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

    Staying Healthy When You Travel

    This clear concise manual explains how to avoid the icky side effects of travel

    Best Title Award from Big World Magazine (Pennsylvania)

    Himalayan Heist

    Wonderful narration of a lively story with great characters

    Lizbeth Meredith (author)

    Madagascar Misadventure

    This was a great story. Malagasy culture, customs and beliefs. Wildlife. Adventure. Humour throughout in the witty chit-chat among the children: Alex, his brother James and the daughter of a colleague of their parents, Claude. Issues of illegal exports of animals and illegal logging. Danger and threat from either people or the environment rear their heads and the children are involved in a great conspiracy and a fight for survival. The writing is wonderful, rich with description, and I can't recommend it enough for readers who enjoy a good adventure in a far-flung place and care about the environment and the protection of animals.
