Summary

From the time she was a girl, Jane Goodall dreamed of a life spent working with animals. Finally she had her wish. When she was 26 years old, she ventured into the forests of Africa to observe chimpanzees in the wild. On her expeditions she braved the dangers with leopards and lions in the African bush. And she got to know an amazing group of wild chimpanzees - intelligent animals whose lives, in work and play and family relationships, bear a surprising resemblance to our own.

Excellent

Very inspiring and motivating for all ages, yet some parts are very sad and brought tears to my eyes…but truthful in every way about how we’re treating animals, the environment and the planet as a whole.
Many thanks to Dr Goodall and all who contributed to this fantastic book.

Good on the whole.

Enjoyed it but it was a bit patronising at times telling you what was obvious as if you didn’t know it. Not much detail in anything. A lot of story but very condensed. Animal noises a bit irritating at times made it like a child’s story.
But I did enjoy it and would like to have heard more chimpanzee stuff.
