Tashi lives in a tiny village below the tea plantations where her mother earns a living. One day her mother falls ill, and Tashi must pick tea to earn the money for a doctor. But she is too small to reach the tender shoots, and the cruel Overseer sends her away empty-handed. Tashi needs a miracle – and then, on the mountains high above the plantation where only monkeys live, something extraordinary happens that will change her life for ever… Monkeys come to the rescue of a struggling family in this traditional tale from a Carnegie Medal winner.
