Adele Mundy examined the creatures in front of her. She was precise by both nature and avocation and her friend and colleague Leary had a notable interest in zoology. She had also been well trained in some of the less publicised parts of library science by Mistress Boileau.

She addressed the other creature, a brightly coloured quadruped.
"I believe, Miss Sparkle, that our colleague is an ape, and not a monkey, as you suggested."
"Oook."
