“Perfect for group sharing. . . . Haughton’s skilled use of color, composition, and page-turns heightens the drama.” —The Horn Book (starred review)

Three little monkeys and their big monkey are sitting high on a branch in the forest canopy. “OK, monkeys! I’m off,” says the big monkey. “Remember . . . Whatever you do, do NOT go down to the mango tree. There are tigers down there.” Mmm . . . mangoes! think the little monkeys. They LOVE mangoes. Hmm . . . Maybe . . . Maybe they could just look at the mangoes. That would be OK, right? With vivid colors, bold shapes, and his trademark visual humor, Chris Haughton, creator of Don’t Worry, Little Crab, crafts a deliciously suspenseful cautionary tale about pushing boundaries—and indulging your impish side (when nobody is looking).
