Very sweet story with warm illustrations. The text is brief, delightfully bouncy, and descriptive. The story ends on a wonderful note of encouragement. A cozy, satisfying read sure to appeal to curious., active little "monkeys" and their parents. Share this one with a hug!

As in the other Little Animal Friends! books by Julie Abery, the baby animals are testing their independence. When Little Monkey falls from a tree, Mama is there for comfort and reassurance, and after a rest, Little Monkey successfully tries again. Little Monkey is perfect for a quick read and snuggles with your favorite toddler any time of the day.

The latest in Julie Abery's "Little Animal Friends" series once again features her recognizably tender rhyming verse as we follow Little Monkey from treetop to ground - and into mommy's arms.

Little Monkey is so cute! From sun up to sun down, he’s always moving. I think all kids will relate to this. I love the action words and the quick pace reflecting little monkey’s constant frolicking. This is lyrical and fun to read and has a satisfying full circle format.
