Synopsis
When the parents are away, the monkeys begin to play as all twenty-six lively critters, from Andy to Zelda, go wild in their own unique way, but when the parents come back to see what was done to their neat and orderly Victorian home, twenty-six monkeys find that they have a lot of explaining to do! 12,500 first printing.

About the Author
Jim Aylesworth is the author of more than thirty children's books, including The Burger and the Hot Dog and Old Black Fly, both illustrated by Stephen Gammell.
Henry Cole's many picture books include Can You Make a Piggy Giggle?, by Linda Ashman, and Little Bo, by Julie Andrews.
From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 2-Aylesworth relates a tale of mischief told through the letters of the alphabet in four lines of rhymed verse. Twenty-six naughty little monkeys engage in wild antics when their human parents unwisely leave them alone one evening. Andy flies paper airplanes, Brooke jumps on the bed, and Carla eats chocolate cake. Their behavior grows steadily more boisterous as Xavier bangs his xylophone and Yates breaks a street lamp with his yo-yo. The parents arrive home in time to send the monkeys to bed and seemingly threaten to send them away. However, on the last page, the whole family is shown on an outing at the zoo. Many of the verses are fun and clever, but others read awkwardly. The exuberant illustrations override the flaws in the text. On full-page spreads of various rooms in the house, Cole vividly sets the stage for the expressively animated creatures to wreak havoc. While this is not a core title, such as Aylesworth's similarly mischievous Old Black Fly (Holt, 1995) or Eileen Christelow's Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed (Clarion, 1989), it will provide reading-aloud pleasure.
