E-mail this pageE-mail this page Printer-friendly versionPrinter-friendly version

A memoir of wildly unconventional childhood in Botswana and South Africa. Scott's parents, two eccentric, idealistic New Zealanders, chose eco-friendly mosquito nets over more effective chemical treatments, downplay the threat of snakebites, and make jokes about tuberculosis. Despite memorable brushes with the devestation of AIDS and post-apartheid rascism, Scott observes the continent and her free-spirited upbringing with enthusiasm and affection.  (SAF203, $15.00)
