Fun facts about you

Can you share Fun facts about you?
Hi,Tomojay. Fun facts, hmm, that’s a tough one. But here goes: (1) I once licked a giant slug. It was in Canada, researching for the Wolf Brother books, and licking that type of slug is a traditional cure for tooth-ache; it worked, my mouth went numb. And the slug survived. (2) I can’t whistle. Never learnt how. (3) My favourite Muppet is Sam the American Eagle. I just love his earnest expression! (4) I once helped Torak the wolf cub to burp. He was only a few weeks old and I’d just bottle-fed him, so I picked him up by placing my palm under his tummy – and he burped! It was incredibly cute. Well that’s all I can think of right now. Thanks for getting in touch. With best wishes, Michelle
