Groves, Derek.
The Roof of Africa on Wheels:
(Alfresco Books, 1999).
Commentary by Jon Amos. Foreword by Chris Bonnington. Jon Amos became a paraplegic following a road accident when just 17. Since then he has advanced the awareness of what a person with a disability can achieve by the challenges he has personally undertaken, raising thousands of pounds for charity in the process. In 1998 he attained an altitude record by someone in a wheelchair - 16,040 feet up Mount Kilimanjaro. This book vividly describes the preparation and actual ascent by Jon and the team. With a fascinating selection of colour photographs, this story of Jon's grit and determination, and the dedicated teamwork of those who accompanied him, makes inspiring reading. Paperback. Fine. 104pp. Order No. NSBK-A6269

Mpata, Agnes and Thabit, Issa.
Wie die Tiere ihre Farbe Bekamen:
(Brockhaus Stgt, 2011).
Der stolze König Löwe hat einen Sohn bekommen. Und deshalb lädt er alle Tiere zu einem grossen Fest ein. Die Freude ist riesig, nur - wie putzt man sich am festlichsten heraus für diesen Anlass? Lange überlegen die Tiere, wälzen Ideen hin und her. Dann hat der kleine Leopard einen genialen Einfal - sich gegenseitig farbig anzumalen! Begeistert machen sie sich an die Arbeit. Ziemlich turbulent geht es dabei zu, und für manche Tiere kommt es ganz anders als geplant. Wir erfahren, wie der Pavian zu seinem roten Hinterteil kam und wieso der Esel seitdem bei den Menschen lebt. Hardback. Very good. pp. Order No. NSBK-A16077
