"Suzi Eszterhas has always loved meerkats. So when she's given the opportunity to spend a couple of weeks with a meerkat mob--including five newborn pups!--it's a dream come true. Upon their arrival in Botswana, Suzi and her zoologist assistant, Becky, are welcomed by two local meerkat experts: Motto and Villa. For the next action-packed two weeks, Suzi and her team closely observe the small but mightily busy meerkat mob. Suzi's ... diary entries and ... photographs give readers an up-close and personal look at the life of these fascinating animals--from the raising of pups, to escaping predators, to surviving the desert's extreme weather"-- Dust jacket flap.
