Mr. Schrefer shared with the boys his writing and research processes, in particular his experiences traveling to the Republic of Congo to study primates, people, and the settings in which they encounter each other. The boys learned about Lola ya Bonobo, a sanctuary for the endangered Bonobo great ape species. They discovered that humans share 98.7 percent of their DNA with the apes, and that apes show affection by grooming each other (the balder the ape, the more popular!)
The boys enjoyed a fascinating discussion with this published author, courtesy of our Parents Association Author Series.
