Archie, a worthy successor to Curious George, is a marooned monkey who builds himself a shelter on a tropical island. Soon he's fast friends with an ibis named Clarice and Beatrice the tiger. All's well until "rough and smelly" pirates capture Beatrice, but Archie's wits save the day. Steeped in greens, oranges, and yellows, the pictures in this cheeky story have an old-fashioned, cartoony appeal.

Rosenthal brings us an amusing, nearly wordless book about a boy who thinks "nothing ever happens around here!" The grumpy little hero makes his way through the city, complaining about his boring town while a dog chases a cat, spooking an elephant, who bolts from the zoo, etc. Youngsters will be entranced by the hilarious scenes in this engrossing extravaganza.
