A Spanish edition of Gerald Durrell´s book A recent English edition
I would like to recommend you this book. It might be a good choice for a Christmas present. The author of the book, Gerald Durrell, was a famous naturalist who wrote a number of books about animals in a funny and entertaining way, because he was, above all, an animal lover. He also presented some television series. The book tells us the childhood of Gerald Durrell with his family in Corfu island and his early love for animals. This created some problems for his family, because Durrell used to fill his room with every kind of local fauna: scorpions, toads, octopuses, etc. Durrell also writes about some people of the island and criticizes some members of his family from a point of view of a child who simply loves animals...
Gerald Durrell was also a pioneer in captive breeding. Here you have the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust website: http://www.durrell.org/
