The Book of Being Chimp is Adrian Cale’s entertaining celebration of the chimpanzee. Written with fact-filled, often witty reverence and featuring over 100 of the author’s beautiful photographs, it is a fun and informative step-by-step guide to chimpanzee life. The captivating pictures are accompanied by a simple, humorous and engaging text which tells you all about the contrasting lives of chimps in the wild and those being rehabilitated at rescue centres. Part 1 - Being a Chimp – details their life in the wild - from birth, through growth and development stages, to what makes them tick, what they eat, how they communicate and more. Part 2 - Being helped to be a Chimp - covers the vastly different life of rehabilitating chimps at rescue centres and what they go through learning to be chimps all over again.
