Willy the chimp recounts the adventures he experiences through his favorite books and invites readers to join him. Each full-page painting is both a Browne original and a visual reference to other famous works of art. Willy's reading list includes classics such as Robinson Crusoe, Peter Pan, and The Tinderbox, giving readers something of an education about the history of children's literature.
