Narrow escapes from confused cobras, belligerent cockroaches hell bent on trying to take over bathrooms, buffaloes who seem to actually see red! Join the author as she meanders down childhood memory lanes in the company of family and friends, humorously recounting tales of interaction with critters having paws or claws and even those without either! Get absorbed in tales of playful dogs, nutty squirrels, inquisitive lizards and vengeful monkeys. Appreciate the small miracles of nature to be found in your own backyards and recapture your forgotten joys through her account of tree-climbing school days and romps through the neighbourhood. Share her glimpses into the human and animal psyche ... observations gleaned while travelling in a pack ... two-legged and four!
