Product Information
An adolescent farmboy's otherwise humdrum summer is livened up considerably by the arrival to the woods near his home of four trained performing chimpanzees. The animals fled from the chaos when the train on which they were travelling (with their kindly trainer) violently derailed. Our young hero learns of the generous reward being offered by the chimps' trainer for their safe return and sets himself to the task. His charm, dedication, ingenuity, and support from his loving family aid him as he researches monkey behavior at the town library and thwarts the efforts of his rivals, the local bullies who are attempting to catch the chimps using less-than-humane practices. He also encounters the fabled spooky old hermit of the woods and learns some valuable lessons about the different paths one's life can take and how every choice we make is an opportunity to determine one's own course.Product Identifiers
