Of all monkeys, I am convinced that squirrel monkeys are the most adorable. I first saw a troop of squirrel monkeys with one mother carrying her baby on her back as they leaped through the trees. Since then, I have watched them play their games and eat fruit and flowers. Carol Creager

Book Details
I am both rare and endangered. I live with my friends and family along the southern Pacific coast of Costa Rica, a tropical area. When Carol, a superb photographer and writer, offered to tell you about me, I was delighted. Carol travels with the noted driver-guide Luis Barrantes (LUBARO). I am happy to share my life and questions with you so that we can become friends too. I hope that you will read my story and help to respect and protect my species and my habitat.
