Monkeys live in very different habitats. Some live in rainforests, grassland, and in cities and towns. Arboreal means that the monkeys live in trees. Monkeys, apes, and humans are primates.

With playful chapter titles such as "Monkey Business" and "Monkeying Around," this book introduces early readers to monkeys. Describing their habits, food choices, how they use tools, and even some cultural traditions surrounding monkeys, the book is sure to make readers smile. But there are serious notes among all the hilarity as the author identifies how humans are threatening the survival of monkeys through the destruction of their habitat. The photographs are wonderful, of course.
