cute story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Chimp Math is a story of a baby chimp who was born at the zoo and his mother would not take care of him. Human doctors took over and the book shows photographs of the chimp named Jiggs as he grows. As the story unfolds it features pages showing clocks, calendars, time lines and other ways of keeping time records based on Jiggs growth and development. I liked the full color photographs of Jiggs. He?s funny. He does lots of things that real babies do like wear diapers, play with toys and crawls.I would recommed this to kids who enjoy stories about monkeys because this one is really neat.
