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.
