Five Little Monkeys Sitting in a Tree

by Eileen Christelow


The five little monkeys and their mama go down to the river to have supper. While mama takes a nap, the five little monkeys climb a tree and tease Mr. Crocodile! The easily excitable monkeys taunt him, "Can't catch me!", they say. One by one Mr. Crocodile SNAPS at them! A very frightened mama watches from the shore. These monkeys are clever, but can they outsmart the cunning Mr. Crocodile and get away safely!?
