One Funky Monkey

One Funky Monkey

A riotous rock 'n' roll animal counting picture book.

One funky monkey as though in a trance, moving and grooving he started to dance - as do the rest of the animals. One Funky Monkey is a counting book that features some very funky animals engaging in various dances - from hip-hopping elephants to jiving giraffes, moonwalking meercats and 'lion' dancing lions. Ultimately they all join a conga line as we count through all the animals one by one.

A great way to make counting fun for the little ones
