Monkey Fun is a playful tale told in rhyme which is sure to amuse the littlest "monkeys" in your family.

Toddlers will learn fun and educational facts, like where the monkeys live, what they eat, and how their mothers' care for them, all while being entertained by adorable monkeys. At the end of the story little ones are introduced to numbers 1-10 and are given additional information about the facts learned in the story.

Monkey Fun has vividly detailed illustrations that depict the monkeys in an eye-catching manner and captures all the monkeying around that little readers will love.

I highly recommend picking up Monkey Fun.

The pictures are so vibrant and full of color that this story will sure keep a child of any age entertained and we had to read it again. I truly remarkable and cute story for the whole family to enjoy! This author is always amazing me with her children's books and I REALLY fell in love with this story and it's another of my favorites!

What a FUN book!

Pull the monkeys out of the barrel and let's see what we can learn about them!

Find out what monkeys do...

Where they live...

And what they eat...

An AMAZING way to teach a small child...although I actually learned something today :)

Told in Julia Dweck fashion and illustrated to keep interest, this book is one you will want to own!

And as always...this book is "edutaining" with facts and a fun counting game at the end.

This book is so cute! I loved everything about it, and I think it would even appeal to young readers (in my opinion). Indeed, Julia has done it again with a great animal book that features what we have come to love about her books--clever writing, outstanding illustrations, and even some fun facts and activities in the back of the book.

I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.

My kids and I loved Monkey Fun! It was an adorable book and my kids really enjoyed reading it with me. We all liked how educational it was and the way it was presented. Young children can enjoy reading while learning something from a picture book. You can read my full review on Monkey Fun! on my blog Munchkin and Bean.
