Raised in a rustic camp in Botswana by her primatologist parents, Keena Roberts grew up surrounded by baboons, lions, snakes, crocodiles, and hippos. But none of these wild animals shook the swashbuckling girl like the private-school middle and high-schoolers she had to face every time her parents returned to America to renew their grants. This thrilling and thoughtful memoir follows Keena between the two cultures as she figures out her place in the world.
