It brings to children the magic and splendours of the world's rainforests.
Whilst he was employed with Jaguar Cars, Terry was given sponsorship to travel to Belize to paint the wildlife there, concentrating (of course!) on the jaguar cats that live there.
The intention was that prints of his works would be made and sold to raise much needed funds for The World Land Trust.
Terry found that the whole environment there, Mayan culture, wildlife, landscape, etc., but especially the big jungle cats, capture his heart.
Rosa's story is a follow up to his first novel Under the Star With a Leopard.
Readers will follow Rosa on a magical and beautiful journey, but what, exactly, is the end result for Rosa?
It's a super tale that is very well illustrated with first rate colour illustrations and this book deserves to be owned by any child who even showed even a passing interest in big cats.
There are also some interesting facts and figures about jaguars, too.
It's published by Matador at £7.99 and can be bought here https://goo.gl/wdCFDG
