PlotThe book is about five little monkeys named Buzzo, Bibi, Binki, Bulu and Bali that are wild and have a bad reputation among the rest of the animals. They regain the favor of the other animals; because, they were brave and captured the terrible tiger of the story and later becoming heroes. Critical receptionFive Little Monkeys received good reviews. Kirkus reviews stated "Her pictures are big, splashy, and angular. The monkeys look as though they are made of electric charged pipe cleaners, and the overall effect epitomizes the humorous side of jungle life".[2] The New York Times wrote "they will give a great deal of pleasure to small humans".[3]References1. ^"The Best of the Year."
