Esther and the Baby Baboon by Susan P Gates

Esther and the Baby Baboon by Susan P Gates

Esther finds a baby baboon with clingy arms and big, scared brown eyes. He cries and clings tightly to her because he's lost his mother. Esther wants to protect the baby, but baboons steal the maize the village needs to survive. Can she look after the helpless creature and protect her village?

Margery Cuyler is the author of many books for children, including From Here to There, The Little Dump Truck, the chapter book Weird Wolf, and That's Good! That's Bad! The idea for the first book in the series came from a conversation with her son, Thomas, who asked, Can't bad things change into good things? Ms. Cuyler grew up in the oldest house in Princeton, NJ, and started writing stories as soon as she learned how to write. She now lives in the same house with her husband, sons and two cats. MICHAEL GARLAND has written and illustrated several picture books, such as The Mouse Before Christmas, and illustrated That's Good! That's Bad! in Washington, DC. He lives with his family in Patterson, New York.
