For Shirley Galligan's book: MUNU: This very special book will encourage a child's interest in the natural world and help create our future conservationists. Munu is lovable and endearing and every child will cheer and remember the world's most special rhino for many years to come! Helen Worth, actor and recipient of the Outstanding Achievement Award (British Soap Awards, 2014)

The real-life story of Munu captured my heart and to see it retold in this charming and beautiful book for children is an absolute dream. This tale about a young rhino surviving in the wild is well crafted and rich with imagination and fantasy. It takes you on Munu's extraordinary journey with compassion and love and with joyous humour. It is also a story of friendship and what can be achieved when people work together. I hope children around the world will fall in love with Munu and his story after reading this. The colourful and detailed illustrations practically leap from the page and expertly recreate life in the African bush. This very special book will encourage a child's interest in the natural world and help create our future conservationists.

The story is caring and funny at times and is very interesting. The illustrations are beautifully done. It's a true story about conservation. ' --Goodreads 2021
