Book excerpt: A New York Times bestseller, Safari is a magical journey for the whole family. Readers, as if on African safari, encounter eight wild animals that come alive using never-before-seen Photicular technology. Each full-color image is like a 3-D movie on the page, delivering a rich, fluid, immersive visual experience. The result is breathtaking. The cheetah bounds. The gazelle leaps. The African elephant snaps its ears. The gorilla munches the leaves off a branch. It’s mesmerizing, as visually immediate as a National Geographic or Animal Planet special. Accompanying the images is Safari, the guide: It begins with an evocative journal of a safari along the Mara River in Kenya and interweaves the history of safaris. Then for each animal there is a lively, informative essay and an at-a-glance list of important facts. It’s the romance of being on safari—and the thrill of seeing the animals in motion— in a book unlike any other.

A chic Parisienne, Françoise never expected to find herself living on a South African game reserve. But then she fell in love with conservationist Lawrence Anthony and everything changed. After Lawrence’s death, Françoise faced the daunting responsibility of running Thula Thula without him. Poachers attacked their rhinos, their security team wouldn’t take orders from a woman and the authorities were threatening to cull their beloved elephant family. On top of that, the herd’s feisty new matriarch Frankie didn’t like her. In this heart-warming and moving book, Françoise describes how she fought to protect the herd and to make her dream of building a wildlife rescue center a reality. She found herself caring for a lost baby elephant who turned up at her house, and offering refuge to traumatized orphaned rhinos, and a hippo called Charlie who was scared of water. As she learned to trust herself, she discovered she’d had Frankie wrong all along. Filled with extraordinary animals and the humans who dedicate their lives to saving them, An Elephant in My Kitchen is a captivating and gripping read.

Download or read book Man on the Goat Trail Man in the Safari Suit written by T. Isom Sr. and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2017-09-07 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world has always been a battleground; the fight started in heaven and came to earth, just as the body, soul, and spirit of man have always been a battleground. Most people are unaware that fallen angels contaminated the DNA of man through sexual relations with women. So the fight is not only a natural fight but a spiritual fight as well, and the soul of man is the prize. So if God couldnt avoid the fight in heaven, how do you think you can avoid the fight here on earth? If you dont learn to fight and understand the fight, you become a casualty. Recognizing your enemy and knowing his tactics will give you the edge, but knowing how to fight, who youre fighting, and what weapons you need to win the fight are key. Genetically, you are what you are and you live with the understanding that no two people are alike and no two spirits are identical. You can come from the same womb, but you will not have the same DNA naturally or spiritually. So whether youre the man on the goat trail or the man in the safari suit, I believe this book will help you get a little closer to victory.
