Gabonese teen Luc assists the mysterious "Prof," a self-described "world-renowned expert on chimpanzees." Sturdy and determined, Luc becomes an astute chimp observer. Schrefer, in this carefully researched companion to Endangered, gives readers an exciting adventure story while deepening their understanding of primates. The book is filled with sensory detail, and the characters, human and nonhuman alike, are well drawn. Reading list.
