Chimp Rescue

Chimpanzees are now rare in the wild, and a wide network of groups works every day to keep them safe and cared for. This book takes young readers inside the sanctuaries built to give chimps a protected home, showing the daily routines of the animals and of the staff who look after them. Along the way, it shares interesting details about how chimps live and behave.

Photographs in bright colors and short boxes of facts support the text. Readers also learn why conservation matters and meet well-known people who have championed chimp protection, including Jane Goodall.
