Going Ape

What Girl Apes wear for Formals

Gibbons’
ribbons

Favorite Fruit at Ape Buffet

Great apes
ate grapes

A Chimp’s Seafood Diet

Pete’s chimp
eats shrimp

Out of Control Chimpanze

Spaz Chimp
has limp

Raised for Courage

No chimps
grow wimps!

At the Great Apes Buffet

Eight apes
ate crepes

When Ape Heroes for Justice Arrive

Fair apes
wear capes
