* * * * * “Authentic, Appealing, Amazing, Awesome! – lovely to be back in the African bush!”

Dr. Sue Hart, the "Daktari" vet of "Born Free" fame wrote “Tales of the Full Moon” as well as other books including the bestseller, "Life with Daktari", on which the popular TV series was based. Based on Sues experiences as a wildlife vet in the Kruger National Park, she began telling these stories to her children at bedtime. They implored her to write them down and so began this blend of fact and fiction that developed into tales told by Spinosa, the spider friend of everyone who lives in the bush.
