Colored pencil and ink illustrations portray wild, gregarious bonobo energy and tender, human-like gestures. Through Lulu’s journey, readers see how easy it is to both draw and blur lines of connection. — Publisher's Weekly ""The lovely story, based on an actual bonobo, has plenty of lighthearted moments, but there is also the poignancy of Lulu’s plight as an individual torn between worlds. A touching tale sure to resonate with any reader trying to find their true place in the world."" — ALA Booklist ""?An excellent book for conversations with children about how wild animals should not become pets but be left to their natural habitats. Will make a good addition to any library’s picture book collection, particularly those needing titles about wildlife conservation."" — School Library Journal
