    If you're an animal lover or someone of nature who wants to read and "see" the life of Gombe, Africa in your mind with the most descriptive passages to help you paint that picture....READ THIS!!! She's very open and real in her book, she is herself and is not afraid to share her opinion.

    From the first chapter I felt a kindred spirit with Jane's quiet passion for life. Through this stimulating book, I traveled to a country I've never seen and a joined a community of Chimpanzees; each with a personality and individual characteristics. And by the end of the book, Jane & I have become friends, and could easily sit and talk about her present and future dreams. I can't tell you of many writers that make me feel that way. You lifted my spirits and made me want to begin ( even in small ways), to make a change. Paul Funston: Napa, CA
