Illustrated by Sally Rippin.
Mum and Dad and Eenie and Meenie and Baby Mo live in a tree in the forest. The tree is just the right size for their family. Then one morning Granny and Grandpa come to stay and everybody is squashed up ("Someone's tail is tickling my nose!", "Someone's bottom is sitting on my head!").
So the family sets off to find another tree that's just the right size. And they do. But then cousins Milly and Billy and Tilly come to stay - so the family must set off to find another even bigger tree!
Features:
- A delightful cumulative story about an endearing family of monkeys. The themes of inclusiveness and flexibility are touched in with a light hand, and the ending is very satisfying!
- Wonderful touches of humour in the text are echoed in Sally Rippin's bright, bold illustrations.
- Lots of rhyme and repetition make this the perfect read-aloud picture book for small children.
