When I was subbing I listened to Jane read this book to Holly's class and I got hooked. I had to go pick it up that day to see what was going to happen next. I already love chimps and monkeys, so of course I love this book!
A very charming story about a very special chimpanzee, and a special family. Who took him into their family and risked their lives to protect and love him. A genetically experiment that very evil people wanted it to get rich. Trying everything to get it even murder. But you will have to get this very incredible book of add Venture and and none stop high jinks,both chimpanzee and human. You will find both laughter and excitement in this action pact book. A must read, especially if you want to find out the ending. Debra H.
This is my most favorite book in my whole entire life!! I read it in second grade a long time ago and I still call it my favorite book. It made my cry at the end, but good crying. It was well written, had a good storyline, and was just the best book EVER!
This book is about a girl named Rachel who has a monkey (chimpanzee) as a pet. One night, someone named Bucky Greene showed up at there house and gave Friday (the chimp) to Rachel's dad and then just disappeared.
