about the author

I was born in the East End of London in an area that was still covered by wartime debris, where we lived in an old house supported by three wooden buttresses. It was small and very cold in winter, heated by a coal fire and a paraffin stove where Mum worked endlessly shopping, cooking and cleaning everything manually.

What a change to the life we live now surrounded with technology at our fingertips, yet, personally I feel I have been privileged to have experienced that time, to have had a foot in each camp, be it modern or out dated, because even though push button A/B telephones and black and white TV doesn't sound terribly interesting to the young, the community and determination of the people of those days continually pull so many of my emotional cords.

 

listener reviews

change is in the air by Maria Adams on 15 April 2017

Hajara is hungry and eating out of turn within the pack costs her dearly.
She becomes an outcast with a very uncertain future
Is she clever enough to hunt and look after herself does she have any hope of survival for a lone cub??.
