The Watcher: Jane Goodall's Life With the Chimps is available for purchase on At the end of the story the author has added a page of further details for the adults about Jane Goodall and her own approach in writing the story. Jane speaks against cutting down the forests which are the homes of the chimpanzees and other animals.
We watch Jane grow from a girl to an adult and finally to an elderly person who works for the interests of the chimpanzees. The illustrations are as spare as the text. The illustrations, like the text, are simple in the same style of Jane Goodall's own observations. Unlike Me, Jane, which is a rather fictionalized version of Jane Goodalls early life, this covers the majority of her life. Scientific observation is actually introduced by the story itself. /rebates/2fp2fWatcher2fJeanette-Winter2f9780375867743&.com252fp252fWatcher252fJeanette-Winter252f978037586774326afsrc3d126SID3d&idbooksamillion&nameBOOKSAMILLION. As the story progresses we watch Jane Goodall observing the animals from her early childhood through adulthood. The reader is introduced to Jane Goodall in much the same style that this beloved scientist introduced the world to our nearest relatives of the primate world, the chimpanzees of Gombe. The Watcher introduces the reader to this fascinating scientist in a unique way. Both written and illustrated by Jeanette Winter, this biography gives any young child a charming introduction to one of the most admired biologists of our time. It will also be a welcome addition for the home library. The Watcher is a book that any teacher or librarian would recognize as an essential addition to the early elementary classroom or library.
