What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Kit lands a summer job writing a children’s column for her local newspaper. She decides to look for story ideas at the Cincinnati Zoo, where her friend Stirling works as a guide and her old friend Will, the hobo, has a job cleaning cages. As Kit noses around the zoo, she stumbles into some strange doings in the monkey house. Her reporter’s instincts tell her that she’s onto something worth investigating–and she’s determined to get the story.
