Safari: a Swahili word, from the Arabic safara, meaning journeyThe safari is not just a holiday; it's a spiritual and physical journey, offering an opportunity to recharge, reconnect, and escape from the cerebral and virtual into the real, instinctive world. Africa is still the continent of wanderers, but the lodge has become a destination in itself, rather than a camp along the way. The new safari aesthetic fuses high-end design with traditional African craft to create highly original, courageous and soulful architecture and interiors. This careful attention to detail also serves to highlight the unique character of the environment – and the importance of preserving it. Safari Style Africa explores the most spectacular of these lodges, each one encapsulating the spirit of place, of Africa itself and its many faces, and providing a gateway into the wild beauty of its setting.
The essence of the safari look is a blend of ethnic African and colonial European styles created by the expatriates who settled on the East African savanna. This compelling style of living is brilliantly captured in this exciting book, which showcases the architecture and interiors of the homes, safari lodges, and camps found in the vast eastern reaches of the African continent. 250 color photos.

Miranda is an animal expert. Or at least, she watches a lot of Nature Joe. Nature Joe is incredible. He rescues animals, returning them to their natural habitat. Mrs. Birdley is a teacher. The natural habitat of a teacher is a classroom. So when Mrs. Birdley escapes school and ends up wild, loose, and confused at the local grocery store, Miranda knows just what to do: she must use her brain, her guts, and her extensive knowledge of Nature Joe to rescue Mrs. Birdley—at any cost! This delightfully over-the-top picture book by newcomer Emma Reynolds explores the weirdness of seeing a teacher outside of school and will have young readers laughing out loud every time they read.
