This is another fabulous creation of Kate DiCamillo's. It is a picture book story of a little girl who, when she looks out her window, sees an organ grinder and a monkey standing on the corner of a street. Every day she sees them and watches them and wonders where they go. It suddenly occurs to her that they have no where to sleep and so she asks her mom if they can help them. In all the business of life, I suppose, and realizing the inability to solve all the world's problems, mom ignores her concerns. There is a happy ending. This is a fabulous read for any age.
