Did someone see a monkey in the swimming pool
Or a monkey drinking a cup of tea
That can't be monkey driving a bus, CAN IT
When 103 monkeys escape from the zoo and go on a mischief-filled adventure in the city, no one seems to see a thing. Can you find the cheeky chimps hiding in the busy scenes
In this bold and clever counting adventure, look closely to find all of the missing monkeys. It gets trickier, as the number of monkeys to spot on each page keeps getting bigger. At the end of the book, go back and make sure you've counted them all!
With high-contrast black, white and red illustrations, this stylish picture book is perfect to engage young readers aged 3 to 5 years who are getting to grips with counting to 100 (and just over!)
The Escape is another delightfully fun picture book from the highly acclaimed Spanish illustrator Ximo Abadia (Toto, 2018 and I Can't Sleep, 2020).
Ximo Abada is a highly acclaimed artist, living and working in Spain. He has illustrated numerous publications including The Speed of Starlight and his work was selected for the Bologna Children's Illustrator's Exhibition in 2017.
