this book because...
I loved this unusual story. I learnt about Nepal, its flora and fauna and the issues facing the people and animals. The relationships between the children grows as the story progresses and they face new challenges. There's action all through the book and you're never sure how they're going to get out of some scary situations. I particularly liked the audio presentation of the story and the sound effects which add so much atmosphere to the story. It's one of those stories that you think about afterwards, not just because it's a great tale, but because it deals with poaching and its dreadful impact on endangered species.
