Book Synopsis

The New York Times bestselling Grumpy Monkey series returns with a celebration of relationships between mothers and their children. Grumpy Monkey offers to babysit the little animals in the jungle but when things go haywire, help comes from an unexpected source. Includes two bonus pages of stickers!

When Jim Panzee offers to step in as a temporary mom, he thinks, It will be fun. How hard can it be? But when he's immediately bombarded with a chorus of needs such as "Carry me, mommy," and "I'm hungry." Grumpy Monkey doesn't know what to do first.

He tries his best but when the baby animals start falling out of a tree, Jim is completely overwhelmed. That's when his mom swings down, picks him up, calms the baby animals, and makes everything right. Jim understands and appreciates the power of parenting and the unconditional love his mom has for him.

Two pages of full-color stickers are included for extra fun!
