Little Chimp's Big Day
Multi-layered reading experience within the illustrations of Little Chimp's Big Day. Little Chimp falls out of a tree and begins an adventure, wondering "Where could Mother be?" Reassuringly, Mother is right there all along if you have sharp observation skills! Excellent rhyming text, and a lovely read-aloud experience with illustrations by Lisa McCue. Lots of animals, insects, reptiles and birds to find, identify and discuss. Recommended.
