Jane Goodall: 91 & Thriving

Well, I found the book of Dr. Doolittle when I was eight, came from the library. And then I used to save up just a few pennies of pocket money. My sister bought sweets with them.

Well, unfortunately, you know, she had two sisters and a brother. She was the third. So the brother went on to be a surgeon, a brilliant surgeon.
