Doyli to the Rescue:
Saving Baby Monkeys in the Amazon
Join 10-year-old Doyli as she sets out to rescue orphaned monkeys from her island home in the Peruvian Amazon. With help from her family, Doyli nurtures them until they are strong enough to be released back into their natural habitat. Along the way, you’ll see what life is like for young Doyli-helping prepare meals at home, rowing to school in her canoe, and being an everyday hero for endangered animals in the Amazon rainforest.
This book is part of an effort to highlight wildlife preservation efforts by kids around the globe. We hope young readers will be inspired by Doyli’s journey and seek out new ways to become change makers in their own community. Get your copy today »
