These further adventures of Christelow's five little monkeys find them cleaning up and selling Mom's broken-down, smelly car. The bouncy, tongue-twisting rhymes occasionally falter, but the resolution--in which the monkeys avert trouble by convincing a bunch of crocodiles to buy the car--will amuse. Colorful, exuberant illustrations depict appealingly independent and resourceful monkeys.
