A Mummy for Owen
Author: Marion Dane Bauer
Was R138.95 Now R97.27
Based on the true story of a baby hippo who loses his mother in the Tsunami and is adopted by a new mummy - a 130-year-old male giant tortoise. During the catastrophic tsunami of 2004, a family of hippos was swept out to sea from their home on Sabaki River, in Eastern Kenya. The sole survivor of the disastor was a baby hippo who was rescued and given the name Owen. Motherless and alone, Owen is befriended by Mzee, a giant male tortoise at a local nature reserve. This moving and charming tale is the story of their friendship.
