內容簡介: |
In his characteristic heartwarming and minimalistic style,
Patrick McDonnell tells the story of a young Jane Goodall and her
special childhood toy chimpanzee named Jubilee. As the young Jane
observes the natural world around her with wonder, she dreams of ''a
life living with and helping all animals,'' until one day she finds
that her dream has come true. One of the world''s most inspiring
women, Dr. Jane Goodall is a renowned humanitarian,
conservationist, animal activist, environmentalist, and United
Nations Messenger of Peace. In 1977 she founded the Jane Goodall
Institute JGI, a global nonprofit organization that empowers
people to make a difference for all living things. With anecdotes
taken directly from Jane Goodall''s autobiography, McDonnell makes
this very true story accessible for the very young - and young at
heart
