  2. Hi, Felicity. Thanks for your interest. Are you on facebook? You can send me a message through facebook if you want.

    There is one person before you interested in Brothers, but if that doesn't pan out, you get it.

  3. Hi Danusha,

    If any of the Nepali folklore books are available, I offer to give a home to one or two. I'm researching for a children's picture book that takes place in Nepal. Please let me know how to proceed and how much postage to send along. Your generous offer seems providential!
