Add to basketLeichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. The target group for "Rory" is beginner readers aged 4-9. "Rory" is a delightful book with full color photography that teaches children valuable life lessons and also about wild animals in Africa. Rory, the littlest cub in the pride, feels that no one in his family takes any notice of him. Everyone listens when his dad roars, so Rory sets off through the bush to practice his roar. However, after trying it out on a friendly giraffe, some scornful zebra and a troop of mocking monkeys, he finds, to his dismay, that his roar does not have the same effect. But along the way he learns some important lessons, and best of all, that one day he will be able to roar just like his dad.

Summary:
Rory, the littlest cub in the pride, feels that no one in his family takes any notice of him. Everyone listens when his dad roars, so Rory sets off through the bush to practice his roar. However, after trying it out on a friendly giraffe, some scornful zebra and a troop of mocking monkeys, he finds, to his dismay, that his roar does not have the same effect. But along the way he learns some important lessons, and best of all, that one day he will be able to roar just like his dad.
On her numerous photographic safaris she has visited Kenya, Tanzania, South Africa, Zimbabwe and her beloved Botswana, where she took the photos of Rory.
Besides having traveled in the Serengeti and the Kalahari, she has spent much time in the Okavango delta, Chobe and Moremi Game preserves.
Patsy hopes others see the beauty of Africa through her photographic journeys. On one visit, Patsy met Gillian Cullinan, a freelance writer from South Africa who was writing a story for Travel & Leisure magazine. Patsy shared with Gill her longtime dream to produce a book for children with her photos of the animals that she had grown to love. Patsy and Gill co-authored "Rory" and are now in their first printing.
Being a self-taught photographer, Patsy exhibits and sells her work at wildlife shows across the USA. Patsy lives on St. Simons Island, GA.
