Moshe's nanny; Japan's herbivores; Sri Lanka.

Moshe's Hero Nanny
Indian nanny Sandra Samuel has been hailed as a hero for rescuing a little boy whose parents were killed in the Mumbai attacks in November 2008. Sandra's devotion to three year old Moshe Holzberg was so strong that after he was orphaned she decided to move with him to his grandparents' home in Israel, leaving her own family behind. She gives Matthew a moving account of her experience.
