Here are two new chapter ideas for my I.B.F.Fs Naturally story The Eagle's Nest.
The first chapter idea consists of me, Luke, Resus and Cleo staring into a pool of clear water, gazing curiously at our reflections just like in the chapter 'The Reflection', pondering still over why we were brought up in this jungle. I also explain that we drink from a water hole like other animals in our jungle do, as I sarcastically mention that in the last chapter, I didn't mention how we quenched our thirst. Suddenly, it begins to rain, and I mention that sometimes we enjoy the rain, as it is a shower that takes away all our cares, but this time we race into a hollow cave for shelter. In the darkness, as the rain pours down outside, we feel tired and snuggle together for protection. With us all peaceful and resting to the soothing noise of the rain outside, I explain about me stroking my friends' skin (and bandages, if I do so to Cleo) and holding on very tight as I sleep, and as we sleep and relax in the darkness, I explain too that our bodies and souls keep us together, and help warm us and keep us protected from any danger, which of course is not present in this jungle. I talk about the softness we feel when we sleep together side by side in the darkness of the cave.
The second chapter idea was inspired by a dream I had mimicking a scene from Disney's Tarzan. In this chapter, Luke, Resus, Cleo and I love to hang around by the edge of a waterfall, which leads straight down to the lake. Our joy is endless, and our deep love of the jungle is strengthened even more when, sometimes, we dive into the water far below and love to relax and splash each other playfully whilst elephants come here to bathe or drink. The only problem was that the elephants would get freaked out by our presence and run away in a massive stampede, but one of the herd isn't afraid of us - a baby elephant, who often loves to play with us and give us a refreshing shower from his trunk. This is also a sign of our freedom, as a refreshing shower from a baby elephant is a sign of our purity. The purity that is one of the very signs of our contentment living in the jungle.
In this book, living in the jungle and indulging in all its purities and wonders is freeing and comfortable. The jungle means softness to me, Luke, Resus and Cleo, and in this world, we never wear clothes - we prefer bare skin, but Cleo mainly prefers bandages because....she's an Egyptian mummy, and she's like that. Our life in the jungle is soft and gentle, without any danger, and just suitable for both us and our wild freedom - true luxury. This book is true, indulgent luxury, too - even softer than a sheet of red, pure velvet. And this book does have nudity in it, but I assure you, it won't be like The Night Kitchen where you saw the main character's private area. Our interactions with nature are described in one single word: irresistible.

What's More Awesome Than CBBC?
It and CBeebies' Australian counterparts from ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) of course! Click the links to see all the fine programmes from ABC Kids:
And from the eternal paradise known as ABC Me:
I'm going to make a few changes to my I.B.F.Fs Naturally book The Eagle's Nest, this time leaving out the tremor and putting in more gentleness, explaining what it really feels to be a part of such a vast and sensual place as the jungle. If you thought the feral versions of me, Luke, Resus and Cleo were this interesting, you should look at the story of Marina Chapman, a woman who had been raised for five years by white Capuchin monkeys.
