Jane Goodall loved Africa so much that she decided to move there. Jane's mother missed Jane so she went out to Africa to see Jane for a month. Mother and daughter worked very well together. Lots of writing had to be done and they worked late into the night writing about all the things the chimpanzees had done that day.
