Have you ever wanted to take a sabbatical from work and go travelling? 'Reading these stories again takes me back immediately to the windswept green hills of Rum, the howling huskies of Greenland and the far-off plains of Alaska, where a green camper bus waits for me to board. What are you doing next summer?' This is a book about puffins and polar bears. Santa's elves and wife carrying. About wonderful people doing strange things in faraway places. About letting your guard down and the world in. Proceeds from book sales go to Birdlife International to support seabird conservation.
