My passion for wildlife
began early

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

    How to Shit Around the World

    In Buikloop, busreizen en bloedzuigers beschrijft Jane Wilson op humoristische en sympathieke manier de gevaarlijke risico’s die je tijdens je reis kunt lopen. Ze verwerkt er vele zinvolle tips in, evenals anekdotes over vreemde toestanden die andere reizigers hebben meegemaakt. Daarmee is dit niet alleen een praktische gids, maar ook een heerlijk leesboekje om je bij te verkneukelen. 

    Himalayan Kidnap

    I'm enjoying the dialogue between the two boys and learning about the wild life of Nepal. A definite recommended read for all ages.

    Himalayan Hostages

    This is an exciting adventure (for readers over the age of eight features) two scruffy English boys and their fiesty no-nonsense Nepali friend Atti. The children have the huge challenge of rescuing the boys' parents from kidnappers and as they chase the grownups through the jungle, they encounter all kinds of dangerous animals - beautifully drawn by Betty Levene.
