Charlie the Chimp Can’t Swim

The sun is hot, and tension is brewing in the jungle. The animals are seething with envy whilst watching the adorable Charlie the Chimp up to his antics swinging through the trees. Charlie seems to be good at everything he does. At the suggestion of the giraffe, the animals decide to challenge Charlie to a race across the wide, rolling river nearby, a feat which they all believe he won’t be able to do. Will Charlie be left humiliated and demoralised? A huge problem lies before him; can he take on the challenge, face his fears and outsmart the jungle animals who all want him to fail?

Pamela Little

Pamela Little was born and went to school in Wath on Dearne, England and attended one of the first comprehensive schools in the country in Swinton. Pamela’s first love was art, which she studied in depth in the sixth form at school, but her talent and gift of drawing and painting took a backseat for several years while she brought up her family with her husband Michael. Pamela began to bring paint to paper and canvas again in her forties and now produces in watercolour, acrylic and oil. Her creativity also took a path in writing and was also something that Pamela did a lot of, mostly poetry. Storytelling came later when she used her vivid imagination on her grandchildren when she was asked to tell stories repeatedly. The stories could never come from a book, they always had to be from her mind, and she told a great many. She has now authored several other short story books for children and another much larger science fiction book which has recently been completed. Her other hobbies are golf and walking. She lives with her partner, John, and has two children; Chris is married to Amandine and Lisa engaged to Pavlo. She has three grandchildren, Michael, Jack, and Daniel.
