Illustrated by
Kevin Cornell.
The simple premise is to count the monkeys, but they've all been scared off the pages by one king cobra. While four grizzly bears run in fear of five bee swarms, the interactive book implores the reader to "make a loud roar," "hum a happy tune," etc. Cornell's hilarious illustrations extend the gag and will have kids giggling (and counting).
