This is a cute little read from Usborne books. At first I thought it was a book to teach your child to feed themselves using a cheeky little monkey. Spoiler: it's not that at all. It's more about the things that can go wrong when feeding a cheeky little monkey (think of "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie"). The illustrations are adorable and it's a cute book for you to read to your child. I'm giving it just 4 stars because the target audience is infants not preschoolers and it's more like a preschool type of book.

A cute way to teach kiddos how to eat...except the part about spreading food everywhere! Cute gift for a baby shower.

Weakest in the series, imo.

My daughter got this book as a present and she is already obsessed with cheeky monkey! It is a cute story about how to feed and then clean up after a silly monkey. The rhythm of the story flows and it has fun sound effects to act out. I don't mind the fact that she's constantly asking me to read it to her.

Dört kitaplık harika bir seri. Afacan maymunla oğlumuz 6 aylıkken tanıştı, ve onun yemek yiyişini örnek gösterdiğimizden en sevdiği kitaplardan biri oldu. Dört kitabın dördünü de tavsiye ederim.
