(Paperback)

The story of Alain Degre and Sylvie Robert, a couple who chose to relinquish their lives in France for the freedom of nature in Southern Africa. This is also the story of their daughter Tippi. Share their unique encounters with meerkats and the hidden mysteries of the cruel Kalahari; travel with them to the wilds of Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe. Read about the beginnings of their daughter Tippi's life in the bush, dunes and swamps, and her endearing kinship with wild animals - particularly Abu, a five-ton elephant, whom she calls 'my brother'. The language of the wild is no secret for Tippi of Africa.
