Five Little Monkeys Sitting In A Tree

Five little monkeys and their Mama walk down to the river for a picnic supper. While Mama takes a snooze, the five little monkeys climb a tree. Why? To tease Mr. Crocodile! "Can't catch me!" they shout, and Mr. Crocodile opens his big mouth: SNAP! Oh no! Now there are only four little monkeys! A second little monkey teases Mr. Crocodile, he snaps his jaws, and that little monkey also disappears-or seems to. The mischievous monkeys are up to their usual tricks in this second rhythmic counting book about their disappearances and surprise reappearances. Paperback by Eileen Christelow. 32 pages, measures 9-3/4 x 8".
