Illustrated by
Pascal Campion.
"Hey kid! Now's the time to stand up." This call to (physical) action stars two kids who get off the couch and end up in the jungle romping with monkeys. Loose-lined illustrations are dynamic without being too frantic. The text is hard to follow without musical accompaniment; an included DVD featuring an animated video will likely return readers to their sofas.
