F&P Level G. Another hit! My boys especially liked seeing how monkeys eat bananas with their feet! Great science connections.

[Naomi · Rating 4 out of 5]

A picture book identifying the various types of monkeys and characteristics. I don't know if I would call this a pre-reader book as it is identified. There are some pretty complex terms that even with being read to little minds might have some difficulties with.

Hang on Monkey! is filled with some of the most adorable monkey pictures ever! Young readers will love the simple sentences and squeal-able images of primates all over the world.
