Linda's family moves from America to the middle of Africa so her father can help teachers there. Everything changes the day Dad comes home with a tiny, diaper-wearing baby chimpanzee found wandering near the school. Named Chester, the little chimp quickly becomes part of the family—eating at the table, playing dress-up, ambushing tea parties with the garden hose, and even nursing Linda when she's sick. Based on a true story, this warm, funny picture book celebrates friendship, mischief, and the love between a girl and her most unusual best friend.
- Based on a true story—the author really raised a baby chimpanzee in Africa
- Laugh-out-loud mischief: garden-hose ambushes, dress-up, and a chimp playing Santa
- A tender friendship between a girl and her unlikely best friend
- A gentle window into life in Africa through a child's eyes
“My brick house is smack-dab in the middle of Africa.”
Perfect for a parent or grandparent looking for a funny, gentle read-aloud picture book about a lovable animal for a 4-8 year old who loves monkeys and animals.
