Produktbeschreibung

Ricky is woken up one night by Cheetah, Zebra and Elephant, who need his help to rescue a lion cub that has fallen into the river. Encouraged by the animals, Ricky overcomes his fear, jumps into the water and brings the cub safely to the river bank. When the cub's parents realise that Ricky put himself in harm's way to help their disobedient cub, they are very grateful. Recognising his bravery, the lion places his paw print on Ricky's chest and declares him to be one of the pride. Ricky returns home with newfound faith in himself, and the secret knowledge that he will be part of the River Pride forever.

Autorenporträt

Linsay Sherrat began her writing career by telling bedtime stories to her daughter (now a graduate student). Night after night she conjured up amazing adventures featuring crazy characters, bringing them to life first in her imagination and then, eventually, on the page through stories and poems. Ricky of the River Pride was inspired by a young boy who loved playing with toy animals. Initially shy and introverted, he gradually opened up to Linsay, allowing her to discover his vivid imagination. For him, the idea of toys coming to life and having an adventure was perfectly reasonable. When she is not reading or writing, Linsay takes pleasure in art, movies, history and fashion. An animal-lover, her home is populated by cats, dogs, budgies and goldfish. She appreciates nature and is a committed recycler who believes in minimising the impact we have on the environment.
