In a humorous, tongue-in-cheek memoir, the enigmatic wilderness icon sets the record straight about his life as he deals with fame, cannibalism, loneliness, personal ads, and his philosophical quandaries.
Illus. in full color. Humorous nonsense rhymes ("1,2--fish in shoe," "yellow, red--cow in bed") introduce simple words and numbers (1 through 10) and encourage kids to copy them down themselves on the blank lines provided. The first few pages show children how to trace letters...from then on, they're on their own. Learning to print has never been so much fun!

Already put off, despite her apology, he is even more incensed when he discovers that Asmita looks down on popular fiction, especially the kind he writes. He vows to teach her a lesson that could jeopardize her job. At each other's throats, Abhimanyu and Asmita are as different as can be, but fate has something else in store and they soon find that there is no running away from love.
