Book: Five Little Monkeys Jumping on The Bed, by Eileen Christelow

This is a board book with beautiful illustrations with pastel colors. This book tells the story of a classic childhood nursery rhyme that can be sang or read. The book is an engaging story of five little monkeys who go through their bedtime routine and decide to jump on the bed.

The story counts through all five monkeys until all the monkeys fall off the bed, are patched up and go to sleep for the night. It captures the attention of children with its repetitive phrases and silly tune. The five small plush monkeys in pajamas that accompany this book creates opportunities to make the story even more interactive.
