RedReviewStarGr 1–3—In this story of young Jane Goodall and her stuffed monkey, Jubilee, the listener follows Jane on a backyard adventure and watches as she discovers and learns about the world around her. She climbs trees, watches birds, and writes about all that she observes. Katherine Kellgren's excellent narration is accompanied by music, and the combination provides a fascinating tale about an amazing woman. This biography leaves the listener with an inspirational "follow your dreams" message that would be an excellent resource for teachers and librarians alike. An essential purchase for any classroom or library collection.—Jessica Gilcreast, Bedford High School, NH
