Filled with repetitive rhythm and captivating artwork, this charming tale about putting off a day's work for a little bit of play helps share the lesson that sometimes it pays to plan ahead.

These tiny monkeys wouldn’t dare put an end to their play time to build a shelter…But when night time rolls around, they can’t help but realize their mistake as the rain starts to pour, the wind starts to blow, and the jaguar starts to growl.

Based on a tale from the Brazilian rain forest about blackmouth monkeys, So Say The Little Monkeys is an irresistible read-aloud that gently reminds readers of all ages that you shouldn’t put off for tomorrow what you can do today.
