When Monkey's cousin MeeMee needs a babysitter for her three children, Monkey and Elephant take on the job. What they lack in babysitting experience they make up for in heart, and the rules they make for their charges could also be rules to live by. Bright illustrations, a sweet story line, and a text with nice repetition and rhythm will engage confident beginning readers.
