Five Little Monkeys With Nothing to Do

by Eileen Christelow


When the usually rambunctious five little monkeys tell mama "We're bored. There is nothing to do!", mama cleverly responds "Oh yes there is" and enlists their help to clean the house for Grandma Beesie's visit. So enthusiastically they pick up their room, scrub the floors, beat the rugs, and run to the muddy swamp to pick berries for dessert. . . but when Grandma arrives and the five little monkeys proudly take her inside, they are all in for a big surprise. "Oh my!" "Oh dear!" "Oh no!" they exclaim.

Children and parents alike will adore this silly story of five clumsy but well-intentioned little monkeys that don't always get things exactly right, but always have a good time doing it!
