'My true love is an adventurer. Whenever he is away from home, he sends me cards and little notes about the places he's been. When he asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I said, "Surprise me." What a mistake! Toucans from Costa Rica, swinging monkeys, pandas playing ping pong, sleeping sloths, peeping giraffes, hiding tigers - I mean, the cards and letters are great, but where does he think I'm going to keep all these creatures!
'Christmas is a time of giving and some people will do anything to find that perfect gift. But when one romantic man scours the world for inspiration, he may be taking things just a little too far...' (Publisher's blurb)
