Autorenporträt
En safari dans les Réserves d'Amakhala et de Shamwari en Afrique du Sud, l'auteur Leslie Woods ressentait une profonde humilité au milieu de la sérénité et de la sagesse de la faune dans son habitat naturel. Elle a rappelé instantanément son joue d'enfance avec des animaux en papier. Madame Woods, épouse, mère, professeur d'espagnol et de français, chanteuse et compositrice, chérira toujours ces jours magiques en Afrique du Sud.
