This year, Jane Goodall, the famous British primatologist and conservationist, is the subject of two wonderful picture books: Me &#; Jane, written and illustrated by Patrick McDonnell; and The Watcher: Jane Goodall’s Life With the Chimps, Written and illustrated by Jeanette Winter.

Environmentalist, primatologist, humanitarian, and United Nations Messenger of Peace, Jane Goodall makes for a wonderful role model—especially for girls. Both of these books, while showcasing Goodall&#;s brilliant and dedicated work with artistic differences, highlight how a childhood dream can become a reality.
