Friends: An African Adventure is the second book of the series called Fauna Park Tales based on African Adventures of Flame, Family, Furry and Feathered Friends , a GOLD MEDAL WINNER on Authonomy, supported by HarperCollins Publishers. An excerpt from the HarperCollins Children’s Editor Review states: The exploration of the interrelationships between animals is a very successful topic in the children’s literature genre, and you have created some great personalities in this vivid and engaging world of animal characters - the stubborn goat, Plump-Grump being one of my favourites. Your use of cleverly animalised verbs is very creative, for example, Flame’s ‘biao-biao’ and Dolly Cat’s ‘whispurr’. After his adoption by a free-range cattle farmer, the underfed desert pup - Flame - is now grown-up and takes his self-appointed task to protect and look after helpless bush creatures very seriously. He makes many loyal furry and feathered friends who support him to keep The Promise in their secret place called, Fauna Park, even at the risk of his personal safety when he saves a zebra family from fires, presumably started by poachers in the area. While he recovers from his injuries, his friends support him in their own peculiar way - sometimes with hilarious results! To encourage Flame to get back on his paws, Hope, the elusive bird of prey with unusual pink eyelids, finally reveals his past as well as his identity to his furry friends, relating how Flame saved him from further misadventure at the hands of poachers. Even though there are ups and downs associated with living in the Southern African bush, lasting friendships and happy reunions make this a worthwhile read which young and old will remember for years to come!
