    About this ebook

    'Being Kind to George' is based on a true story and real life characters. Set in a beautiful Country Park in the heart of Wiltshire, England, it tells the tale of how man can affect the wildlife around him.

    The story tries to show how even in kindness, man can damage not only the delicate balance of the environment in which animals live, but by befriending a wild animal they can remove the instincts that help it to survive.
