Awards/获奖情况：PreSchool-K—Little Monkey gets into mischief when Big Monkey is too busy to play with him. First he amuses himself by throwing figs that Big Monkey has picked for supper. Then he swings and jumps in the Big Tree, but crash-lands in the middle of the bed that Big Monkey has made for him. Finally, he swings from a branch and lands right on top of Big Monkey, who is trying to nap. Little Monkey fears that he is no longer loved when he is sent to bed for punishment, but is reassured that Big Monkey loves him always, even when naughty. There’s nothing original here, but the familiar message is always on target for small children, who will easily identify with Little Monkey. Lively cartoon drawings in watercolor and pencil depict the mischievous animals at play in a colorful jungle setting.---Sally R. Dow, Ossining Public Library, NY, From School Library Journal

Little Monkey finds it hard to be good while he waits for Big Monkey to finish his work. After Big Monkey picks figs for their supper, Little Monkey throws them "SPLAT!" against a big tree. They pick more figs together. After Big Monkey makes a leafy bed in the branches, Little Monkey jumps on it and breaks it. They repair it together. Playing up high in the tree, Little Monkey slips and falls on top of Big Monkey, who roars with anger and sends him up to bed. Later, they exchange apologies and express mutual affection despite mutual failings. Readers who have developed allergic reactions after overexposure to sugary picture books with "I love you" in their titles will find this offering relatively low on the sweetness scale. Not only does it show a parent provoked to the point of losing his temper with his thoughtless, impish offspring, it also features illustrations filled with bold, imaginative plant forms and painted in a wild, fresh palette of colors.---Carolyn Phelan, From Booklist
