"My Name is Not Monkey Girl" serves as a tremendous resource for parents, teachers, grandparents,
schools and libraries alike.
It was written
with the aim of teaching children the importance of unconditional kindness, patience, love, tolerance and compassion.
And inspired after a child called Candace a monkey girl. At the time, Candace
was approaching her to play.
Author Miriam Jacobs is on a mission. The seven-time author recently
announced that she has set out to raise funds for facial reconstructive surgeries for her 8 year-old granddaughter, Candace.
Along the way, she is promoting tolerance, education, and compassion for those who have Giant Congenital
Nevus; a rare skin disorder that Candace was born with."
