A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Rita is a writer of women's fiction, short stories and memoir. This is her first children's book. The inspiration for Tiger Tails occurred while she was teaching creative writing on board the Vasco da Gama while sailing from London to Sydney in 2019. She met Dr Param Sandhu who was lecturing on wildlife and in particular, about the plight of tigers in the wild. Tiger Tails aims to showcase his wonderful photographs and to impart knowledge to young readers about the the tigress, her cubs and the habitat in which they live. Included in the book are the words and music to a Tigress Song suitable for primary school use. Other books by the author include Take Three Boys which is a personal memoir and relates the details of her twenty five years spent helping Romanian orphans, and a novel The Way It Is. Both are available from Amazon.

Dr Param Sandhu is a nature photographer and an international speaker. His lectures are illustrated by his wildlife images and his narrative is around nature, wildlife photography and conservation. He is well respected as a photographer of wild tigers and is immensely knowledgeable about their behaviour. He is passionately concerned about their dwindling numbers.
