Amazing book! Very emotional, and very heart-breaking, but very heart-warming. I loved Mango's character. She was so protective when (spoiler alert!) the National Geographic photographer came. I was so sad when Luc saw the leopard the last time. Anyway, here is the summary. Luc's mother died of a disease, and his father left and never came back. He starting living with Monsieur Tatagani, who was cruel to all the boys living with him. When a rich-looking man comes to the place Luc works at, Luc tries to rob him. Instead of turning him into the police, the professor offers him a job. Luc accepts it, and they set off into the jungle, looking for chimpanzees. Prof claims that Nat Geo. will come later on in the study. They see two groups of chimpanzees- one group consists of an extremely young female named Mango, an old one named Beggar, and a relatively young chimp named Drummer. The other group is a strong, big pack. Luc becomes very close with Mango, which angers Drummer. Drummer attacks Luc many times, but eventually they become close. Something terrible happens to Prof, and Luc is on his own. Drummer and Mango eventually get accepted into the bigger pack. Luc makes his own house, and realizes that he does have a family. WARNING: BE PREPARED TO CRY AND BE EXTREMELY TERRIFIED FOR THE INCREDIBLY SWEET CHARACTERS. Amazing book. Definitely better then Endangered, which is saying a lot.

Sounds like a good red.

I really liked this book. My teacher suggested it and i'm thankful for that. It has lots of twists and turns. It is about a girl who is struggling to fit in with her family and will do any to do so! I love this book!

This book is important to know because of how dust bowls occurred in some states. There was no water for a long time while it happened. Read this book to find out how this all happened! I like this book because it tells about dust bowls and the dust bowl is a type of storm and I like storms and I like reading about how it happened.

I read a book but not this book!

I decided to read this book because it just looked good. It turns out, I LOVED it. It was filled with so much fun and adventure, I hated when the book finished. You should totally read this book.

Really good I love the plot, the theme, & tone. It's a great biography, I cant believe she was killed under the guillotine. if you are under the age eleven, twelve, or thirteen.

BEST BOOK EVER!!! LOVE VICTOR CRUZ!!! GO GIANTS!!! Amazing story of how VIctor Cruz came out of the blue...

This book is inspirational. It is the perfect book for helping 4th Grade students understand global issues through the lens of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. Each chapter has facts about the needs and wants of all humans as well as beautifully presented real life stories of children from a diverse range of backgrounds.

This Novel really caught my eye because of the diversity of characters and I wasn't disappointed. You get views from either side of the battle and you get to see what it was like for those sides. Many of the characters allow you to get attached to them.
