began early

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

    Himalayan Heist

    An exciting story of adventure in the Himalayas, with fascinating encounters with all the wildlife you might see in the mountains. Plus lots more with twists and turns in every chapter.

    Himalayan Kidnap

    This exciting adventure for children (and others) 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.

    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.
