This is proper edge-of-the-seat stuff * Times Educational Supplement *
Fast-paced with a serious message * Angels & Urchins *
This action-packed, eco adventure by wildlife specialist Steve Backshall contains an important message about the survival of tigers ... Once I started this book, I couldn't put it down and my heart was thumping as the drama unfolded before me. It heightened my awareness of the dangers faced by many species who are fighting for survival, but this book is so much more than that * The List (Glasgow and Edinburgh) *
