Description
Howler Monkey was one of the best climbers in the whole jungle - until the day he landed on his tail with a big thump.
He kept smiling and playing with his friends, but on the inside he was very sad... What if he could never climb again
Can Howler Monkey get his confidence back and reset his sense of self
A gorgeous picture book about resilience and change, sharing worries and staying positive.
Author Bio
Alex Rance played 200 games for the Richmond Tigers. The last three years have seen him experience the highs of a drought-breaking AFL premiership in 2017 and the lows of a season-ending knee injury in 2019. These experiences have inspired him to write his picture books Tiger's Roar (2018) and Rabbit's Hop (2019) and Monkey's Tail (2020). Using his passion for education and storytelling he hopes to inspire the next generation to realise their dream.
Shane McG is an award-winning picture book illustrator. He has also exhibited in London and Melbourne.
