    No more Monkeys jumping
    Got this for my grand-daughter. Use to say this verse to my kids all the time. Now we have these wonderful visual images to help us interact with the story. Great illustrations.

From the Critics

"In this exuberant picture-book rendition of the popular nursery rhyme, five little monkeys obediently bathe, brush their teeth, don their pajamas, and nestle together under the covers. . . . Squiggling, swirling lines of color capture the sense of unbridled motion as the monkeys bounce and, one by one, topple from the bed. . . . An amusingly presented counting exercise." Booklist, ALA

"Whether sublimely happy or ridiculously goofy, Christelow''s expressive monkeys pack a lot of appeal." School Library Journal, Starred
