| book description |

A film tie-in edition to 20th Century Foxâ€™s film adaptation of the heart-warming international bestseller starring Scarlett Johansson and Matt Damon and directed by Oscar-winning director Cameron Crowe. An amazing true story that has inspired the major Hollywood motion picture this Christmas, to be repackaged for release alongside the film. We Bought a Zoo is about one young family, a broken down zoo, and the wild animals that changed their lives forever. When Ben [played by Damon] and his wife Katherine [played by Johansson] sold their small flat in Primrose Hill, upped sticks with their children and invested their savings into a dilapidated zoo on the edge of Dartmoor, they were prepared for a challenge and a momentous change in all their lives. With over 200 exotic animals to care for â€“ including an African lion, a wolf pack, a Brazilian tapir and a jaguar â€“ Benâ€™s hands, and those of his wife, children and tiny team of keepers, were full. What they werenâ€™t prepared for was Katherineâ€™s devastating second brain cancer diagnosis. Ben found himself juggling the daunting responsibilities of managing the parkâ€™s staff and finances, while holding the bailiffs at bay and caring for his wife. A moving and entertaining story of courage and a familyâ€™s attempts to rebuild a zoo, and carry on after Katherineâ€™s tragic death.
