When Jim Panzee fails to identify the footprints of a polecat with a very smelly spray, he winds up smelling very stinky. The jungle animals complain about the stench, and his best friend Norman reminds Jim that they learned how to identify animal footprints in school. Then the jungle animals chime in saying that it was too bad that Jim spent all his time in school daydreaming. They insist: Jim needs to go back to school. At first, Jim objects. After all, he's a full-grown chimp living on his own branch. But Norman convinces Jim to head back to the classroom, even if he's surrounded by baby animals. Grumbling all the time, Jim Panzee studies Animal Tracking, Physical Fitness, and Jungle Plants. Although he's not the best student, Jim will have to use everything he's learned to help his friend Little Turtle and his tummy ache.
