Product Description

Product Description
A cheeky little girl and her toy monkey swing irresistibly through the pages of this gorgeous playful book. Young children will love guessing what animal they are pretending to be, before shouting out the answers as the pages are turned to reveal the real creatures. Soon, everyone will be waddling like a penguin, jumping like a kangaroo and hanging upside down like a bat!

5.0 out of 5 stars We adore this book, 18 Jun 2007
By A Book Lover (Scotland) - See all my reviews
Having borrowed this book from our local library and loved it to pieces, we are placing an order for this story as soon as we can.

Both myself and my two childen, aged 2 and 5 love this book. The story is very simple telling the tale of a young girl and her beloved toy monkey visiting the zoo. The language is simple and repetitive and my two children love reciting the words and shouting the animal names as loud as they can. The illustrations are fantastic and very easy on the eye.

My 2 year old loves this book so much that he has been taking to bed with him every night. I recommend this book to anyone who has young children whom I'm sure will love it as much as we do.

5.0 out of 5 stars I loved it!, 24 Jul 2007
By J. K. Eve - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is just right for bedtime reading with little ones. It has repetition, a simple storyline and is beautifully illustrated. My son can't coment yet, but I'm sure he will as soon as he's mastered the art of speaking!

This book is beautiful, easy words and simple yet gorgeous illustrations, my 15 month old son loves it especially as his favourite bed-time toy is a monkey who looks similar to the illustrations!! A perfect book for toddlers who love being read to!!
