Manners Are Not for Monkeys

(3) K-3 Illustrated by David Huyck. After observing courteous human families from their cage near the zoo playground, three monkey children adopt good manners--to the dismay of their mother, who wants them "to behave like monkeys." When some rude, uncivilized children arrive, the zookeeper decides to release the well-mannered monkeys and cage the unruly children instead. Loose cartoon-style illustrations reflect the absurdity of the amusing tale.
