The River Wild

Fact #10 - Kiki spent seven days in a raft maneuvering her way through the Grand Canyon with only a pocket knife, a can of creamed corn, a half-completed New York Times crossword puzzle, and a savvy, monkey companion.

CORRECTION - My crack team of fact checkers has informed me that all that's true except you can replace the pocket knife, the can of creamed corn, and the half-completed New York Times crossword puzzle with Kiki's family. We are still trying to confirm the savvy, monkey companion. Frankly, this author's going to be pretty upset if there wasn't a savvy, monkey companion.
