What is Clever Little Monkey about?
Clever Little Monkey is hungry for the delicious bananas growing on the other side of the river. But the river is crowded with hungry crocodiles, and crossing it will be dangerous. Monkey must think quickly and use all his cleverness to outwit the waiting predators. Can he find a safe way across, reach the bananas and escape without becoming a crocodile’s dinner? This bright, funny story is told in simple language for children beginning to read independently.
