Chimpanzees are our closest living relatives, sharing more than 98 percent of our genetic blueprint. Humans and chimps are also thought to share a common ancestor who lived some four to eight million years ago. Although they normally walk on all fours (knuckle-walking), chimpanzees can stand and walk upright. By swinging from branch to branch they can also move quite efficiently in the trees, where they do most of their eating. Chimpanzees usually sleep in the trees as well, employing nests of leaves.

Hazel ★★★★★

The detail about sharing over 98 percent of our DNA really hit me—it makes every photo of the chimp and baby feel more meaningful. I found myself flipping back to the pages about the common ancestor a few times, just to let it sink in.

Thomas I. ★★★★★

The way this book breaks down our common ancestor from eight million years ago is fascinating and surprisingly easy to follow. I found myself reading sections out loud to my family because the facts about chimpanzee behavior were so compelling. It's a quick, eye-opening read that left me thinking ab

I had no idea we shared so much DNA with chimps until I read this—that 98 percent figure really puts things in perspective. The way it explains our common ancestor from millions of years ago is fascinating.
