Meet Boris, the chimp who took a bite out of the Big Apple—and wished it had been a banana: “No one concerned with either apes or people should miss it.” —Peter S. Beagle, award-winning author of The Last Unicorn This book answers the question that is on everybody’s mind: “What’s it like to raise a chimpanzee in Manhattan?” Hester Mundis’s hilarious memoir No He’s Not a Monkey, He’s an Ape and He’s My Son is the complete guide to raising a chimp in the heart of urban America. Join Hester, her husband, their terrifying attack dog Ahab, and the funniest monkey—excuse us, ape—ever to occupy an apartment on the Upper West Side of New York City in this true adventure of woman versus beast.
Rachel can't imagine why Bucky Greene, a scientist friend of her father's who's developing genetically engineered bananas, would show up at their New York City apartment in the middle of the night to leave a baby chimpanzee with them for a week -- or why they absolutely, positively can't tell anyone about it. What could possibly be "top secret" about an adorable chimp like Friday? Rachel hasn't a clue, but when Friday turns out to be really, inexplicably intelligent (Rubik's Cube's a snap) -- and Bucky Greene turns up really, inexplicably dead (he slipped on his own banana peel) -- she suspects serious monkey business afoot. And when chimp-nappers step into the picture, getting to the bottom of Friday's "top secret" before it's too late becomes a delightfully madcap mystery -- with Rachel in a riotous, nonstop race for survival of the fittest. Written by four-time Emmy-nominated writer and acclaimed humorist Hester Mundis, who raised a chimp of her own in her Manhattan apartment, this is a wonderfully funny -- and heartfelt -- novel about endangered species, corporate espionage, and going bananas in more ways than one.
From flea-repelling crystal pet collars to Machu Picchu package tours, the New Age movement offers a delicious variety of services and products for every spiritual want. Mundis presents the first no-nonsense guide to enlightenment.
