I could hardly believe my eyes. A cold mantle of white was rapidly transforming our sunny paradise into a bizarre winterscape of citrus Christmas trees, cotton wool palms and snowball oranges.

‘Peter Kerr writes with a combination of nice observation and gentle humour’ THE SUNDAY TIMES

When the Kerr family leave Scotland to grow oranges in a secluded valley on the island of Mallorca they are surprised to be greeted by the same freezing weather they have le behind. Then they realise that their new orange farm is a bit of a lemon…

‘had me laughing out loud on my way to work’ FAMILY CIRCLE

Laughter, nds Peter Kerr, is the best medicine when faced with a local dish of rats and the live-chicken-down-a-chimney technique of household maintenance. But their Mallorcan neighbours help them adapt to their new life. Snowball Oranges is hilarious and revealing, full of life and colour, set against the breathtaking beauty of the Mediterranean. Peter Kerr’s series of books set in Mallorca have sold over 180,000 copies and been translated into many languages since Snowball Oranges became an overnight best-seller. Mañana Mañana was shortlisted for the WHSmith Travel Book of the Year Awards.

Lost in the Jungle • 978 1 84024 672 8 • £7.99

The Backpacker • 978 1 84024 771 8 • £7.99

This is a harrowing true story of adventure and survival. Four backpackers meet in Bolivia and set o into the rainforest on a dream expedition, lured by the promise of uncharted villages and forgotten tribes hidden in places tourists only dream of seeing. But what begins as the adventure of a lifetime quickly becomes a struggle for survival when they get lost in the wilds of the Amazonian jungle. Told with gripping immediacy, it’s an extraordinary, terrifying tale that you won’t be able to put down. ‘Every so o en an inspirational tale pops up that is simply better or more frightening than anything Hollywood can create. Lost in the Jungle… is one of those’ SUNDAY EXPRESS

Tout Sweet • 978 1 84024 761 9 • £7.99

Serge Bastarde • 978 1 84024 770 1 • £7.99

In her mid-thirties, fashion editor Karen has it all: a handsome boyfriend, a fab at in west London and an array of gorgeous shoes. But when Eric leaves, she hangs up her Manolos and waves goodbye to her glamorous city lifestyle to go it alone in a run-down house in rural Poitou-Charentes, central western France. Perfect summer reading for anyone who dreams of chucking away their BlackBerry in favour of real blackberrying and downshi ing to France. ‘… very entertaining…’

Leaving the blinding sand for the cool shade of the trees, I walked carefully through the undergrowth to where Dave, using two twigs as chopsticks, was picking up a freshly severed human nger…

FRENCH magazine

I found Serge’s advice mostly useful and it would have been churlish to have refused his invitation to accompany him on a trip out in the country to ‘forage for hidden treasures’. If the truth be known, I secretly couldn’t resist the novelty of passing time with a bloke called Serge Bastarde. Filled with eccentric characters, high jinks and unlikely adventures, this is a hilarious romp through the real rural France. ‘charming and wonderful, hilarious from start to nish... Fun Fun Read!!’ Waterstones, Lancaster
