Feral

We've all read stories and novels about feral children. Children raised in the wilds by lions, tigers, bears, apes, and whatever beast mama was wandering about looking for a child. The stories have always had a place on our bookshelves. Plutarch wrote about Romulus and Remus about two thousand years ago. Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Book was written in the 1800s. Tarzan, the jungle lord, is an important part of our culture. Feral children hold a special fascination for those of us raised in civilized surroundings. This collection contains nineteen new stories about children raised in the wilds - where Mama walked on four legs, swam in the oceans or swamps, or flew through the air. Alligators, flamingos, foxes, snakes, armadillos, rats, beavers, and even a smart oak tree. No matter who she was, remember that Mama's always right. Stories are by J. F. Capps, Robin Lupton, Stuart Conover, R. J. Meldrum, Serena Dubois, David Morris, Stephanie Ellis, Tim Pulo, Dorothy Howell, Alyson Faye, Catherine Jordan. Rie Sheridan Rose, Shebat Legion, Rose Strickman, Robert Allen Lupton, and J. F. Terrell, Jr.
