New Orangutan Book
In May, Face to Face with Orangutans was published by National Geographic Children's Books. Tim shares his stories of working with his wife, orangutan researcher Cheryl Knott, studying the wild orangutans of Borneo. The book is entirely illustrated with Tim's unique images of fully wild orangutans and gives young readers not only a lot of interesting information about orangutans, but a real sense of what it is like to spend time with them in the rain forest.
