Book Reviews of How it Was With Dooms: A True Story from Africa (Aladdin Picture Books)
Book Review: Wonderful book for cheetah lovers
Summary: 5 Stars
Being fascinated by big cats and cheetahs in particular, I loved this book. Seeing pictures of Dooms so relaxed with Xan as a baby was so amazing. I thumb through the book every day. The photos are so moving to me. I would highly recommend this book to fans of the magnificent cheetah.
Summary of How it Was With Dooms: A True Story from Africa (Aladdin Picture Books)
Twelve-year-old Xan Hopcraft grew up with a pet cheetah at his home in Nairobi, Kenya. When the magnificent animal died, Xan wrote a story about what it was like to own a cheetah and how he died. With both photographs and Xan's own drawings, here is a real story of life in Africa.
