Description
One fine morning, Jim Panzee wakes up and decides that all he's going to do is play all day. There’ll be no tidying his branch, finding bananas for lunch, or even taking a bathroom break. Nothing is more important than having fun.
So Jim Panzee spends the day swinging with the monkeys, singing with the birds, and rolling around with the zebras. But by the end of the day, when Jim is dirty, itchy, and hungry, his best pal Norman patiently tells him, “Too much of anything can be, well, too much.”
Grumpy Monkey Play all Day is a delightful story about finding the balance between fun and responsibility.
