A modern-day picture book classic from renowned children’s book creators Quentin Blake and Emma Chichester Clark.

This funny, chaotic, and utterly delightful picture book about forgiveness and love from renowned children’s book author-illustrator Quentin Blake and celebrated illustrator Emma Chichester Clark is a perfect story to treasure together.
This is a delightful book by acclaimed author Quentin Blake, with wonderful illustrations by Emma Chichester Clark. It is the story of Hilda Snibbs who lives in a lovely Paris apartment with 3 little monkeys. She leaves each day and asks her little charges to "be good please". Of course, the little monkeys misbehave in her absence, but she is always tender and understanding about the chaos they create, because they are little monkeys, after all. But the little monkeys have a surprise at the end for the Hilda they love.
