Loved this novelization of a chimp raised as a human child by one of my favorite authors. Mr. Preston based this novel on four chimps that were raised in human homes between the 20's and 50's. I was so intrigued that I looked up the chimps on the internet and was flabergasted at the photos and write ups of these experiments. Jennie is a wonderful peek into the relationship between humans and animals.

Good story...makes you think about wild animal in a domestic setting.
