Description

Ben Tomlin's life has been turned upside-down when his parents bring home a baby chimp to raise as a human child. Teaching a baby chimp how to understand language is not Ben's idea of fun, especially when he's trying to settle in at school.

But Zan, the baby chimp, quickly wins over everyone with his infectious personality and becomes a real member of the family. As Ben navigates his new reality, he must confront the consequences of raising a being who is not like him, and the repercussions that follow when it's time for Zan to grow up.

This thought-provoking novel explores themes of relationships, family, first love, growing up, ethics, and dilemmas, making for a compelling story that will keep you engaged until the very end.
