Storytime: Superchimp
Giles Paley-Phillips, Karl Newson
Superchimp is the hero of the rainforest. He spends his days rescuing baby parrots from trees and hippos who are stuck in the mud – no job is too big or too small for Superchimp. He even wears a cool cape, and rides around in a chimpmobile!
But despite his bravery, even Superchimp gets scared sometimes… although the person he is most afraid of is not as terrifying as you might think! When Mum bellows at Superchimp to tell him it’s time to come home, he obediently obeys. It seems Superchimp can be a superhero just as long as he doesn’t upset his Mum and is home in time for tea – which is a lesson any child should know! A tounge-in-cheek way to introduce the topics of helping others, overcoming your fears and understanding rules.

I liked it because he was very kind and looked after the other animals, especially the hippo that got stuck in the mud I would recommend this book

I think the animals are very lucky to have superchimp as a friend.

Its a fun rhyming story, with a super hero! I liked his "snazzy cave".

I thought this book was excellent! The funniest part is about him having red underwear.
