Hi WAC and welcome back,

I am also a great fan of her books (in Germany they put both together in one) and always when I am getting a bit bushsick (in the dark and cold German winter) I grab my book and read it again

Presently I am reading it for the forth time

I love her books!

These two books are fantastic. Whenever I get bush cravings I read one or both of them They are just great. Has she written any other books? The Bruce Bryden book is also great. Another good 'bush book is all the way Home by Bookey Peek. Based on a wild life sanctuary in Zim. Its excellent reading

I agree pjw, these books are amazing and are a fantasic remedy to cure and help with bush cravings Just love the way she writes.

im halfway through reading the wilderness family book and totally engrossed in it, great book. whats all ths i hear about there being more books by this author, id love to read them if anyone has more information.

Found "All things wild and wonderful" at our local public library. Will be reading it in KNP next week!

I can re-read these 2 books ove and over again! Saw copies of both in the local Exclusive books over the weekend

Ditto! And I scorer the bookstores in case there are more released!!

DB Wrote



Me to DB. I wonder if she wrote any others as the 2 available were published some time ago

They were yes. I have searched the online book stores too - and only ever seen those two, or the revised version which is just the two in one.

Her youngest daughter has a website - http://www.karinkruger.com/

I read these 2 books not to long ago...I Must of been about 15....Fell Inlove with the bush(For the millionth time ) and to due to it, Just finished my FGASA level 1 and Trails guiding courses, and will hopefully be living in the bush anytime soon now......1st job, might just put me into Biyamiti in the Kruger

Well done justin!!!

i have just finished reading the wilderness family and i thought it was amazing, i was in floods of tears reading it towards the end when she was saying good bye to leo.
i was desperate to find out if she wrote follow up books so i searched on the internet, at first i could only find her daughters web page and then i found an old interveiw(2001) with kobie kruger which revealed leo had died in 2000 from a attack from two other lions at his new reserve in zimbabwe, im devestated!! plus kobie kruger has been living on the eastern cape for a long time now, why did the family leave kruger? is she never to write about her adventures in kruger again? does anyone have any answers? im heartbroken

Ag man!!!

that sucks!!!

leo, dead!

Hi Sallyanna,

I think the family left Kruger after suffering some personal tragedies.
