After reading My Name is Not Monkey Girl it touch my soul so deeply ,to where my one prayer is that she gets on the Oprah show one day to let this world see her beautiful smile. I let my eight year old granddaughter read the book and it taught her a lesson on compassion.

Reviewed by Debra Griffin 8/29/2007
The first edition of My Name is Not Monkey Girl was just lovely with a positive message for children. I love Candace and I am proud to be a part of this child's story. I pray that God continues to use her to spread His powerful message of love and I cannot wait to purchase the second edition for Nya.
