PreS-K–Baby Monkey is ready for bed in this delightful lift-the-flap board book. Perched on his mother’s back, Baby Monkey searches for the perfect place to sleep but struggles to find the right spot. “This leafy plant looks safe. Can I sleep here?” asks Baby Monkey. When the flap is lifted, readers discover an armadillo with two babies who responds, “We are sleeping here!” It’s a really nice point, straight out of Goldilocks: it has to be just right, but in this case, someone else got there first, and so the search necessarily continues. Featuring charming illustrations, a cast of unique animals, and a heartwarming conclusion, this book is sure to become a favorite for young readers.
VERDICT A strong addition to most library collections.
