Each of these fourteen tales about Lewin's suspenseful, often terrifying, and sometimes funny wild animal encounters is prefaced with a map and followed by a note with additional information. Watercolors and photos portray people, animals, geographical features, and modes of transport, enriching the travel-diary quality of the text. This is outstanding nature storytelling; it's even better when read aloud. Glos.
