Mothers will love A Greater Love

If you’re still wondering what to give your mum for Mother’s Day this Sunday, why not buy her a copy of A Greater Love by Olga Watkins?

Set during the Second World War, this is a warm and moving true love story which will have your mum gripped from the first page. A Greater Love tells the heart wrenching story of Olga’s two year search for her great love, cruelly snatched by the Gestapo in war-torn Budapest.

Refusing to give up hope, the young Olga risks her own life, travelling thousands of miles in the hunt for the man she loves, not knowing if he’s alive or dead….

As the Daily Mail says: ‘This is a book that deserves to be read.’

From Dartmoor to California: We Bought A Zoo

The new film We Bought A Zoo, directed by Cameron Crowe, is out tomorrow starring Matt Damon and Scarlett Johansson.

Even though the film is set at fictional Rosemoor Wildlife Park in southern California (and was filmed on location at Greenfield Ranch at Thousand Oaks near LA), the story is based on a memoir by Benjamin Mee whose family bought and refurbished Dartmoor Zoo, set in 33 acres of woodland at Sparkwell, Plymouth in Devon, England which reopened in 2007.

To find out more about Benjamin Mee’s story and Dartmoor Zoo click here and go to this article for more information about the filming locations.
