9-year-old Eva Gregory longs for a pet to call her own, but her mother Amy does not think she is responsible enough, and her stepfather Tom is allergic to fur. She cannot keep the pet at her father Peter's house because he is a pilot and travels a lot.
One day, a Capuchin monkey runs away from his drunken master, gypsy thief Azro, who blames him for his domestic woes. He meets Eva in the park, and she names him Dodger. At home, she finds that keeping him a secret is trouble. She only allows her little half-brother Jack, who cannot speak yet, into her room with him.
At a grocery store, Dodger steals food and hides it in Eva's backpack but she returns it. When she returns home, she discovers he has also stolen golden jewelry and wallets. So she teaches him not to steal.
