A review by mazza57
Born Free by Joy Adamson

2.0

I may be among the minority but I really did not like this book for a couple of reasons. Firstly I feel that the interventions that the Adamsons made were never in the best interests of Elsa and certainly not of her cubs. Having decided to return Elsa to the wild they failed to let her do this, constantly returning and giving food even after Elsa mated and had cubs they continued to intervene and this meant that the cubs never really had a chance to live to their nature.

Secondly the book felt so repetitive. All their actions were the same day after day. Far frombeing heart warming or emotionally challenging I was largely bored or annoyed by the narrative
