Anthony Browne's ever-popular Willy the chimp is back - in two laugh-out-loud stories about unexpected success. With typical tongue-in-cheek humor and crisp, polished artwork, Anthony Browne's whimsical books about Willy the chimp remind us that heroes are found in all shapes, sizes, athletic abilities - and cultural tastes! WILLY THE CHAMP finds the laid-back chimp enjoying music, reading, and walks in the park - but failing miserably at athletic chimplike endeavors. Then he manages to deck Buster the bully - by accident - and wins cheers from the big chimps who jeered at him.
Willy the Champ is a book that allows a parent, teacher or clergyman to explain posititive character traits. This story with its simplistic words and magnificent illustrations chronicals the efforts of a chimpanzee viewed as not apt at doing much of anything to fit in amongst his peers. Willy's character traits include compassion, perserverance, patience, courage, self-discipline/responsibility and self-esteem. This book will reinforce a positive value system that all children can and will identify with.
