Book excerpt: "This is a story of the early days of the reintroduction of zoo-born golden lion tamarin monkeys to the coastal rainforest of Brazil. ... The characters, and their personalities and experiences, are fictional but loosely based on those who actually took part in the work. ... the experiences of dozens of monkeys may have been combined into those of 13 individuals that were born in North American zoos and reintroduced to the wild in Brazil in the course of this story."--Preface.
