Elizabeth Felton Nemur & Friends

Elizabeth Felton · with Giavanna Loya

Nemur & Friends

A read-aloud living book about a singleton lemur who keeps learning the same soft, hard lesson: friendship arrives, friendship leaves, and kindness is still the thing you practise. This is Elizabeth's front door — the reading room, and the five rooms of Creature Compass / Liz Felton's Wild World that grow out of it.

Living scene layers

  • 1 Background environment — savanna gradient running
  • 2 Mid-ground — hill bands, acacia silhouettes still
  • 3 Foreground — canopy parallax running
  • 4 Effects — dust motes, warm light shift running
  • 5 Character — Nemur, independent sway running

Each layer is reducible on its own. Switch Motion mode above and watch this list change.

The book — now in two editions

Nemur's Conspiracy

Edition One is the read-aloud room that was already here. Edition Two is new: Liz's own supplied artwork, twenty-four plates in reconstructed order, animated and page-turned. Both stay side by side — nothing was replaced.

Edition Two exists because twenty-six image files arrived and twenty-three of them are wordless pictures. Rather than invent replacement prose, the read-along is held until Liz supplies the manuscript text. Illustrator of the published book: Giavanna Loya.

Editorial note · published title

The listings say Nemur's. We follow the listings.

Public bookseller listings spell the published title Nemur's Conspiracy: The (Mostly) True Story of Nemur E. Moo. — credited to Elizabeth Felton (author) and Giavanna Loya (illustrator), 24 May 2023, 31 pages, ISBN-13 979-8395949769.

The owner's spoken and written variant “Nemer's” is retained here only as an input note. The production register uses the published spelling Nemur's unless and until the physical copyright page proves otherwise.

Public listing copy describes a singleton lemur, and relationships found and lost. That description — not our paraphrase of it — is what the reading room is built on.

What the actual listings say, including where they disagree.

Every field below was read off a live retailer or catalogue page, not reconstructed from memory. Where two sources disagree, both numbers are printed. Where a field is genuinely empty, it says Not stated rather than guessing.

The real published front cover. Illustration © Giavanna Loya. Reproduced here at catalogue size for identification of the edition on this register, which is not the same thing as a licence to use the artwork — that grant is still open. Retrieved from the live Amazon listing, 5 September 2026.

Colour read off the cover, not invented

The palette on this site was originally a guess. These five values are sampled from the actual cover file, with the share of the image each one covers.

A correction we owe the author

An earlier pass on this register flagged the Safari Bob's Exotic Educational Animals mark on the back cover as a third-party trademark requiring an outside licensor's permission. That was wrong, and the correction runs in the author's favour.

Elizabeth “Liz” Felton is a co-owner of Safari Bob's, with Bob Felton. The business's own Instagram bio reads, verbatim: “Liz & Bob Felton welcome you on a truly wild adventure into the Animal Kingdom!” Two Florida outlets independently describe her as co-owner of Safari Bob's Exotic Educational Animals in their 2020 coverage of her congressional run.

So the mark on the back cover is her own business's mark. It still needs a written grant from the entity that holds it — a register does not accept “it's mine really” as paperwork — but that is now an internal formality rather than an outside negotiation. The one genuine outside rights holder on this title is Giavanna Loya.

Reception, counted honestly

There are two pieces of written response to this book in existence, and they are not two independent readers.

  • One organic customer review. Amazon, 23 July 2023, five stars, four sentences long.
  • One commissioned review. OnlineBookClub.org, posted 17 July 2023 — six days earlier — under the same reviewer name, but with entirely different and far longer text. OnlineBookClub is a paid review service. Labelled as solicited, and not added to the organic count.
  • Goodreads registers the rating and then says, in its own words, “No one has reviewed this book yet.”
  • Books-A-Million: “No Ratings.”

Honest total: one rating, one organic review, one paid review. Two useful facts do come out of the commissioned review and are corroborated by the listing copy: the book is written in rhyme, and it carries factual lemur endnotes at the back.

Where the sources disagree

Seven open conflicts. None are resolved by picking the flattering number.

  1. Page count — 31 on Amazon, 32 on ThriftBooks and Books-A-Million.
  2. Publication date — 24 May 2023 on Amazon, 30 May 2023 on OnlineBookClub.
  3. Byline order — Books-A-Million lists the illustrator first.
  4. ISBN-10 — none exists. Books-A-Million prints the 13-digit number in the ISBN-10 field; ThriftBooks prints the Amazon ASIN and calls it an ISBN. Both are data errors, so this register prints no ISBN-10 at all.
  5. Goodreads author page lists four titles. Only this one is confirmed hers; the other three are adult non-fiction editorial credits from 2012–2014 with no animal or children's-book connection. Treated as a possible same-name collision, not as her bibliography.
  6. Not listed at Barnes & Noble — an ISBN search returns 404. No library catalogue record could be retrieved; WorldCat rate-limited the query and returned nothing indexed. Distribution is five print-on-demand and marketplace listings.
  7. safaribobs.com is unreachable — repeated connection timeouts. Current operating status of the business is unverified. The Instagram mark also reads “Safari Bob's Adventures”, not the back cover's “Exotic Educational Animals”; a rebrand is likely but unconfirmed.

The umbrella statement

Creature Compass / Liz Felton's Wild World is ONE modular umbrella — not five disconnected apps.

One account, one welfare policy, one age-and-consent model, one content review standard, one progress record. The five rooms are modules that can be licensed, switched off, or opened for a partner independently — but a child, a caregiver, an educator or a keeper meets the same rules in every room. A kindness mission earned in the reading room is the same object the Wild Passport stamps. A species page in Animal Ally is the same reviewed record Keeper Coach plans against.

Shared spine

  • Adult-controlled entry & consent record
  • Welfare policy: never reward approach or touch
  • Reviewed-information labelling on every card
  • Accessibility: motion modes, Quiet Mode, transcripts

Modular by design

  • Rooms ship independently; the spine does not fork
  • A partner can take one room without the others
  • Out-of-scope species stay visibly out of scope
  • In-person education is a separate, gated module

Names are not cleared

  • “Creature Compass” — trademark search pending
  • “Liz Felton's Wild World” — trademark search pending
  • Domain and app-store name availability unchecked
  • Partner and co-branding terms unwritten

Both umbrella names on this page are working names, used subject to trademark, domain, app-store and partner checks. Treat every name you see as provisional.

The app family

Six rooms, one compass

Every room below is a working interactive prototype you can use right now. None of them is a finished product, and each carries its own status chip.

Vertical slice = usable prototype Portfolio specified = designed, not built
Due north · core room

Nemur & Friends

The read-aloud living book. Six spreads of original prose, narration with a visible transcript, tap-to-notice observation, empathy prompts and a kindness-mission hand-off.

Living-book doors

Nine doors, honestly counted

Every living book in the portfolio is meant to support nine doors. Here is which ones this front door and reading room actually open today.

“Listen” is open as an interface with a visible transcript panel; no recorded voice performance exists. “Watch” is specified only — no film, episode or motion asset has been produced.

Child safety

Safeguarding panel

Children are part of this audience, so the defaults are locked before they are convenient. The four switches below are welded on: they render as controls so a reviewer can see them, and they refuse to turn off. The two beneath them are genuinely caregiver-adjustable.

Locked defaults


Caregiver-adjustable

Ambience is off. In this prototype no audio file exists — the switch records the preference and the reading room shows a transcript instead.

Rights gate · a feature, not a disclaimer

Nothing ships until every row is signed

The book's copyright page controls exact credit. Until each row below has real acceptance evidence attached, this whole portfolio stays a prototype. Tick a row to rehearse what “cleared” would feel like — the counter is honest about how far off that is.

Production truth

What does not exist yet

This site is a specification you can touch. The interactions are real and the written content is real. The production is not.

  • No shipped code. No app binary, no backend, no account system, no data store.
  • No motion assets. Every scene here is CSS, SVG and canvas drawn for this prototype.
  • No films or episodes. The “watch” door is specified only.
  • No voice performances. Narration controls drive a transcript, not a recording. No performer has been cast, contracted or paid.
  • No rights clearances. Every row of the gate above is unsigned.
  • No verified venues or partners. No entity, permit, insurance or staff record exists.

Words we will not use

Not “fully built”. Not “available now”. Not “launching”. Not “coming soon” either — a date we cannot keep is its own kind of claim.
