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.

    Madagascar Misadventure

    This absorbing adventure is accurately set among roads less travelled. Of critters best avoided, strange cultures, contraband, imminent death and endless caves. Whatever your age, the book is an easy listen. Put Madagascar on your bucket list.
