“Jane Goodall’s extraordinary respect and affection for the chimps she has lived among since 1960 are conveyed resoundingly in these stories.

“Chimpanzees, more like us than any other living animal, form a living link between two worlds, human and non-human beings. When David Greybeard reached out to touch my hand I needed no words to understand his message of reassurance: and I loved him.”
