Blake, Quentin Three Little Monkeys Illustrated by Emma
Chichester Clark PICTURE BOOK Harper, 2016. $19. Content: G.
Hilda Snibbs has three pet monkeys who like
to cause mischief while she is away. No matter
how many times Hilda tells them to be good, they cause a mess. One day when Hilda returns home she can’t
find her monkeys anywhere and she is distraught. When Hilda finally finds them in the closet,
she is so relieved that when she climbs into bed that night, she decides that
she doesn’t care that they hid all the silverware in her sheets. What does she expect-they are monkeys.
This book is adorable and I enjoyed the
illustrations. The naughty monkeys made
me and my son laugh. The whole book I kept
thinking- of course they are making a mess what does she expect, they are
monkeys, so it’s funny when Hilda admits as much at the end.
