Along with a passion for evangelism, Drummond also had a passion for the natural
sciences. As a missionary, not only did he preach to the peoples of central Africa, but
he also studied and observed the African wildlife. Drummond’s travels inspired this
delightful children’s book, in which a mischievous monkey wreaks havoc upon all who
try to catch him. The book contains sixteen drawings by the prominent British artist,
Louis Wain.
