Description

Monkey Chef tells the story of the nine months Mike Freiheit spent in South Africa as a chef for a primate sanctuary, preparing food for both the monkeys and their caretakers. Through short stories -some whimsical, some comedic, some dramatic- Mike recounts the highs and lows of his experience in South Africa. Mike’s drawings of monkeys are expressive and delightful, but what really stands out in this series is how strong and honest his autobiographical storytelling can be.
