Yo, Jane by Patrick Mcdonnell

Con enorme sensibilidad y unas gotas de humor, el multipremiado ilustrador Patrick McDonell nos cuenta la historia de Jane, una niña inglesa nacida en el seno de una familia de pocos recursos, que sueña con ir a África para conocer a los animales que ha visto en los libros. Mediante su imaginación se traslada hasta ese continente en compañía de un simpático mono sin imaginar que, con el paso del tiempo, su sueño se volverá realidad. Esta niña es nada menos que Jane Goodall, una de las mujeres de ciencia más conocidas y queridas de la actualidad. Naturalista, activista y primatóloga, ella ha consagrado su vida no sólo a estudiar a los chimpancés africanos, sino también a promover el respeto a la naturaleza. Entre los muchos reconocimientos que ha recibido por su trabajo están el Premio Príncipe de Asturias de Investigación Científica y Técnica. Además, en 2013 fue galardonada por la Asociación Parlamentaria en Defensa de los Animales.
