Cape for Kids books
Join Monty the Mongoose on a discovery trip around Cape Town!
The Cape for Kids book series invites children (and adults) to an exploratory journey across Cape Town. Monty’s adventures takes the reader to well-known landmarks like Table Mountain, Kirstenbosch, Rondevlei and Boulder’s beach. Through his encounters with other local animals like River Horse the hippo, little Bushy squirrel and a brave penguin called Portly, Monty the mongoose takes you on exciting, sometimes scary and fun experiences that always leaves you knowing a bit more about the natural diversity of our wonderful city. Each story has an ‘interesting facts; section and offers real educational value by raising questions around aspects of environmental awareness and animal care. The books are written for 7-10 year olds but are interesting for both younger and older children. Make sure to pack the relevant book for your next hike or beach adventure, and spice up the picnic break with a story that happens right where you are sitting!
