First Page

Way up high,

in a big palm tree,

sits one little monkey.

Then two.

Then three!

Monkeys jump.

Monkeys play.

Look!

More monkeys

on the way!

Little monkeys

love to swing.

Little monkeys

love to sing.

Monkeys love

to climb up far.

Monkeys on rugs

and a big spice jar!

Monkeys hold on

with their tails.

Monkeys bounce

on silky sails.

Monkeys leap.

Monkeys slide.

By fruits and flowers,

monkeys hide!
