My name is Rebecca White. I was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia. I went with my father, who is a minister, on two mission trips to Nepal and fell in love with their culture. This story is really about my fiancA(c)e, whom I met in Nepal, and me. I am the little white monkey, and he is my Deepak; his mother once told him that he was marrying a white monkey. Do not be offended for me; this comes from one of the Hindu stories about where white people come from. I wrote this story for our children to read, should we be blessed with children. I also thought that it would be enjoyed by children around the world.
