Chipper Wump¿s father goes off fishing and disappears. Shortly after, his mother is captured by zookeepers and taken away. Chipper awakens one morning to an empty nest in the tree and wanders the jungle in search of a home.Little Lost Monkey is a foster-to-adopt children¿s story written by psychologist and foster father Jim Kenny. When seeking an illustrator for his book, Kenny decided to highlight the talents of an individual with developmental disabilities. Stone Belt Arc artist Carla Mann gave life to Kenny¿s mental picture of Chipper Wump, and she spent the next year drawing and coloring 48 pictures for the book. Little Lost Monkey speaks to children coping with loss in their own language, reflecting the emotions they are likely to experience, not the ones adults think they should have. In this book, Chipper grows from being a vulnerable and frightened monkey to one coping and being empowered to take care of himself.Various emotions experienced by a child in temporary care are represented in Chipper¿s encounters along the way. He encounters a snake, a tiger, and a crocodile before being helped by a wise owl. Chipper is temporarily mothered by a lioness before going to a chimpanzee village where he finds acceptance and love.All proceeds benefit Stone Belt Arc, a nonprofit agency that provides supports to individuals with developmental disabilities.
