Coco and Friends: The Story of a Capuchin Monkey and His Adventures (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781467042697)

"COCO And Friends, The story of a capuchin monkey and his adventures" is primarily based on actual events and primates who were rescued and now inhabit the newly developed and open to tourist (fall 2010), Monkey Jungle of Dominicanana, located in Sosua, Dominican Republic. Coco, being the first adopted capuchin monkey runs the show down in their grotto, so he believes. After his friends all start ganging up on him and ignoring him because he teases others, sticks his tongue out at everyone and steals things from the tourist because he believes he is a human primate and better than his friends, Coco decides he has no choice but to run away from home. The story chronicles his adventures as he seeks out to experience all of the things that he has heard the tourist talking about while visiting them in the jungle. Coco fly's a plane, then takes a few cars for a spin. Meanwhile, he stumbles upon a nice house with a great big swimming pool. He introduces himself to the family dog and then takes a swim before heading inside to find that no-one is home. All excited, he immediately begins the search for the refrigerator he has heard about, as he is starving. He winds up in the dryer, the dishwasher and then finally finds the infamous refrigerator. It is all he had ever dreamed it would be and he enjoys himself immensely before washing up in the sink. As he begins to really miss his freiends back in the jungle, he feels sad and he searches for other adventures to keep him occupied. He dances to a few of his favorite tunes on their ipod, then heads for the closet and enjoys a fashion show with the human primates baby clothes that he finds. Just as he lies down to relax awhile he hears voices, the human kind and they are getting louder by the second. There is more than one. Coco begins to get really nervous. What follows is an experience he nor they will ever forget. It will make you smile, laugh and leave you with such a feeling of excitement that you will want to go and visit Coco and all of his friends in person. And fortunately, you actually can.
