They look cute and cuddly but don�t underestimate them � our closest living animal relatives use tools to hunt, can hold a grudge and can even use computers to communicate. From Dr Carla Litchfield, conservation psychologist, and with a seal of approval from Dr Jane Goodall.
Product reviews...
This is a really neat book. I have learnt so much about Chimpanzees, including how close they actually are to us humans.
I have found this a great educational book for the primary/intermediate years. The facts are produced in an easy to read format, with contrasting photos.
This book focuses on 7 types of Chimps. It reveals the variations between the types of Chimps, from where their habitat is to what they do to hunt, and how they communicate with each other.
I would be prepared to pay up to $25-$30 for it.
Random listing from 'Books'...
Hinepau has hair the colour of a sunset and eyes the colour of greenstone. The people in her village are frightened by her startling appearance. Even her weaving is different, all back to front and inside out. The people banish Hinepau from the village, but when disaster comes and the great volcano grows angry, it is to Hinepau, the outcast, they turn.
