What is Jungle school about?

Jani the monkey is feeling nervous about her first day at Jungle School. She wonders whether the other monkeys will be friendly, or stare at her because she uses a wheelchair. But Jani’s cheeky sense of humour soon helps her settle in. Across three lively stories, she meets new classmates, faces everyday school adventures and discovers that being different does not stop her from making friends. With simple text and bright illustrations, this is a warm and funny introduction to reading.
