What does monkey want?

David Wojtowycz
Walker Books
ISBN: 9781406355734
RRP: $14.95

This novelty book for the under 3s has see-through cut outs and simple slides to encourage reader interaction and sharing. Monkey is asked to try a number of very un-monkey-like activities; not until the end of the book is there one he takes to naturally and happily. This early peek at the difference between fantasy and reality shows they are equally enjoyable worlds for the imagination.
A Baby Walker board book.
