Description: Kaitie was four years old when she traveled with her mother to Uganda, where her mum was going to study chimpanzees. One day, a two-week old orphaned red-tailed monkey was bought to their sanctuary. As the adults were all busy working with chimps, Kaitie was placed in charge of caring for the tiny monkey. This is the true story of Kaitie's friendship with the baby monkey she called The Little One. It is the story of an extraordinary young girl, and one adventurous year in Africa.
