Title: Ape house
Author: Sara Gruen
Jenny’s pick
I picked up this book after reading Water for elephants by Sara Gruen, although this book didn’t quiet measure up to Water for elephants, I really enjoyed it, and recommend it, especially if you love animals. We meet Bonzi, Sam, Mbongo, Makena, Lola and Jelani, these bonobos apes are not only intelligent but they can communicate with humans using sign Language.
