Read this work 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.

Professor Henry Drummond (1851-1897) was a Scottish evangelical writer and lecturer. He was educated at Edinburgh University, where he displayed a strong inclination for physical and mathematical science. While preparing for the ministry, he became for a time deeply interested in the evangelizing mission of Moody and Sankey, in which he actively co-operated for two years.

In 1877 he became lecturer on natural science in the Free Church College, which enabled him to combine all the pursuits for which he felt a vocation. In 1888 he published Tropical Africa, a valuable digest of information. In 1890 he travelled in Australia, and in 1893 delivered the Lowell Lectures at Boston.
