Julie Santos: Love this story, it’s a classic! I couldn’t find my old one so bought a new one. Teaching my kindergartners their colors, color words, and sight words from this story and using a homemade directed writing book.

Amazon Customer: My grandchildren love this book:)). We had a very old copy which was falling apart. So we ordered this new one. They were very excited when it arrived! We’ve already read the new one several times.

laura house: Our son asked if I remembered reading this book to him over and over again, many years ago, he had loved it. Of course I remembered reading it but I could not remember the title all I could remember was the monkeys in the tree. Then one day the title came to me so I ordered it from Amazon so I could give it as a gift to my son for Christmas so he could read it to his son. It is an endearing book that has children wanting to hear it over and over again.
I hope our grandson enjoys it as much as his dad did.
