Praise for Little Larry Goes to School (Baby Animal Tales)

“Readers will be touched by poignant close-up images that capture Little Larry’s personality, environment, and relationship with the other chimpanzees… This dynamic design combines multicolor pages with expressive photography that will inform readers about chimpanzees living in sanctuaries and the role of human caregivers… this heartwarming, child-friendly true story distinguishes itself from the rest.”— School Library Journal

"This dynamic design combines multicolor pages with expressive photography that will inform readers about chimpanzees living in sanctuaries and the role of human caregivers. The book contains a map indicating the location of the sanctuary and facts about chimps’ facial expressions and sounds. VERDICT: Though there are numerous titles on chimps for this age group, this heartwarming, child-friendly true story distinguishes itself from the rest." -- School Library Journal
