A Zoo in My Luggage Audiobook (Unabridged)

" This was my first Gerald book. I have enjoyed all that I have read. He had a great knack for storytelling. A must read for anyone who like animals and likes a good laugh. "

" Spoiler: living with animals entertaining. "

" very well written, perfect descriptions of Cameroon "

" It takes a few chapters to warm up, but after that it's gripping. I read it all in one afternoon. It's not for those who are used to fiction or controllable life tales, but for anyone who is remotely interested in wildlife and conservation it's a must read. "

" I love the way Mr. Durrell relates his adventures. Lots of humor, fabulous settings, and interesting creatures. "

" Fun,interesting and educative, an easy read about a passionate man. "

" I love animals and travel nonfiction, and this had both. I read it as a junior in high school. Whole family read it and all loved it. "

" Picked this book up, actually saved it, from being sent to the used book store. An easy and fun read. The pidgin English is strange but has a logic all too itself. A nice easy read for a lazy sunday. "

" This is a poorly written book, and the language has tons of tribal slang so this can be challenging to read out loud. I have had to sensor much from this story while reading it to my children, who are interested to find out what wild animal is found next. I would not recommend this book. "

" Another great book by Durrell. I only started reading him because of the fab movie Masterpiece did on My Family and Other Animals, but his books are well written and funny! I'm not usually a big fan of non fiction, but I'm a big fan of his! "

" A quick easy read. A true story full of descriptions of African animals. A bit tongue in the cheek with colourful African characters and stories of animals being captured/lost. "

" Great premise, but very difficult to follow. "

" just another animal related travel story from Durrell, not really unique but still carrying his light and humorous, off-the-cuff style that makes all his books a pleasure to read. "

" Fun read that transports you to another time & another place. It helps to have a love of animals & their preservation. The illustrations by Ralph Thompson are very good. "

" Enough good things can't be said about Gerald Durrell and his amazing (true) animal stories. Touching, clever, interesting, very witty and thoroughly compelling. I have seven of his books already, and my collection is steadily growing. Highly recommended. "
