From the Inside Flap
If you'd like a "tail" with a little French twist, then you've absolutely fall I love with Madame DuBois and her pet monkey, Emily. Their lives in New Orleans model a French American style-eating beignets at the outdoor market, dressing in stylish designer clothes, and sleeping in a frilly French-style bedroom. Emily loves playing with makeup, swinging from chandeliers, and painting pictures on walls, but hiding is her favorite thing to do. Her best places are on the bookshelf, in tall plants, and in the kitchen wastebasket after she has dumped out the trash. Of course, Madame DuBois can find Emily anywhere--all she has to do is look for a dreadful mess. Every day Madame DuBois spends many hours cleaning up after her pet. Until one day Emily goes wild! Then things change. Read about the difficult decision Madame DuBois must make. Her problem is heartbreaking but what results is heartwarming.
