MY FIRST AFRICAN ADVENTURE

By Riaan Manser with Murray Williams & Chantal Tarling

In My First African Adventure, Riaan Manser allows the reader to relive the toil, excitement and occasional terror of his journey - negotiating the Sahara and Libyan deserts, learning French, Portuguese and Arabic, eating monkey, rat and bat, standing in front of the pyramids, being awarded the freedom of the Red Sea in Egypt, feeding hyenas mouth to mouth, and standing on the highest, as well as at the lowest, points in Africa. Riaan arrived safely in Cape Town on 25 November 2005. Now, for the first time, children can relive this amazing journey of discovery in a fun, illustrated version of the original journey.

Crammed with fun facts and information, My First African Adventure will entertain young and old for years to come.

Parents and children are invited to join one of the world's great modern-day adventurers, Riaan Manser as he explores Africa by bicycle!
