A CHIMP IN THE FAMILY by Charlotte Becker

A CHIMP IN THE FAMILY

By

Publisher: Messner

Who was the psychologist that adopted a chimpanzee to see how its development compared with that of his young son? We can't remember offhand- and not that it matters, for the monkey here is brought home by Mr. Davis from his pet store just to be kept in the Davis apartment until the zoo takes over. There are endearing to harrassing moments during ""Maggie's"" stay with the surprisingly accomodating family, and young Tom and Peg, after they've learned a lot about good house habits, are sorry to see her go.
