Who Is Coming? (Rookie Readers)

Rating:
Summary: Great to Read aloud
Review: Little monkey, who lives in Africa, is pursued by several animals that also live there and one who doesn't. In his attempts to get away from his pursuers, Little Monkey has to run up, down, over, under, in, and out. He finally gets a rest when he realizes that his last pursuer, the tiger, doesn't live in Africa. This book introduces children to the concept that there are other places in the world and that different things live in different places. It also teaches them about opposites. This book is very charming and engaging. My two-year daughter loved it immediately and had me read it again and again. She now loves to read it on her own--to turn the pages to see "who is coming" to get Little Monkey and to tell the monkey to run. The illustrations are also engaging. A new classic for our house!
