Description

Our Zoo tells the story of June Mottershead's extraordinary childhood, growing up in a village surrounded by animals. Her father's dream of opening a zoo without bars became a reality, and for June, her best friends were the charismatic creatures that lived there.

The early years were not without their challenges, from shunned by the local community to facing bankruptcy and World War Two. Yet, with her father's resilience and resourcefulness, June's childhood was filled with laughter, heartbreak, and adventure.

In this enthralling memoir, June chronicles the characters that shaped her childhood, both human and animal. A story of love, loss, and triumph, Our Zoo is a unique and fascinating glimpse into one family's extraordinary life.
