    Genius! Love the book! SO cool to watch Jamie taking it all in. The way she jiggles her hand to let you know to turn the page, sigh, she’s too much. CSNW, you have THE most amazing people supporting you, what a wonderful gift.

    What a lovely book and what a great friend Jamie has in Vicki. Was fascinating watching Jamie tell you when to turn the page and show such interest

    Vicki: You must be thrilled with Jamie’s reaction to your gift. She is mesmerized, slowly turning each page, going back over it again and again. Your heart must have been pounding heavily in your chest as you watched her tell them to turn the page, again and again. The video was wonderful –showing all the different angels of the episode. This has to take the prize for being one of the most heart warming posts ever. And thank you Sanctuary staff for allowing all of us followers to see it. Bless you ALL

    Unbelievable response to the book from Jamie. It was deeply touching and remarkable. What an amazing chimp with such a nice friend to make this book of boots for her!

    As Jamie turns the pages of her book, I can’t help but to think that she is grinning. Thank you, Vicki, for such a wonderful gift.

      I’ve seen Negra, Jody, Annie, and Missy look through books and/or magazines, but not with the intensity that Jamie does.
