About this deal

But the monkeys love mangoes and the more they think about them, the more they convince themselves that maybe it will be fine just to go and look at the yummy fruit. And then maybe it will be OK to get just a little closer or maybe even snatch that small mango from the nearest branch? Act out the story with your child one of you being mummy and a tiger and the other one of the baby monkeys or alternatively you could act it out with toys as the monkeys and tigers. Be a monkey

In his bright and happy picturebook Maybe, Chris Haughton explores the behaviour of three little monkeys who go right ahead and do exactly what was forbidden. They escape a potentially nasty outcome by the (almost literal) skin of their teeth, but no way will readers be left in fear and trembling. Rather they will share in the monkey mischief and see how the monkeys made a silly and dangerous choice. When you go shopping choose a mango to buy. At home cut it up and eat some together, talking about the taste as you do. Do some counting All in all, a fun book about listening and that looking often ends into touching or just going for what may not be the best choice. Though kids here probably won’t get tigers after that, like this trio did. Maybe we could just look,” is the question/suggestion posed by one of the three young Monkeys warned to stay well above the mango tree because there are tigers down there. And well, what’s a monkey to do when they know delicious mangoes are just hanging there. A look would be okay, wouldn’t it? And down they go! This earned my, 5 Star Huggable award. It’s sheer brilliance! I hugged it with glee after I read it.

The brilliance of childlike thinking and reasoning is what makes this book a winner in my opinion. Chris Haughton absolutely nails it. Haughton’s picture book about naughty and curious monkeys is a great read aloud. The text is made up solely of the monkeys’ dialogue with one another, so make sure you have at least four monkey voices at hand! With simple text, Haughton creates a book full of building tension that also offers a wild chase scene that will have readers merrily gasping along with the monkeys, before a final twist. Maybe” is a fun story, but also a teaching story about what happens when trying to stretch the rules. This five-star book will be enjoyed by children aged three to seven. Little ones will love trying to warn the monkeys while stating what the monkeys should have done.

Three little monkeys, and their big monkey, are sat high up on their branch in the forest canopy. “Ok, monkeys! I’m off,” says the big monkey. “Now remember. Whatever you do, do NOT go down to the mango tree. There are tigers down there.” Mmm… mangos! think the little monkeys. They LOVE mangos. Hmm… maybe… maybe they could just look at the mangos? That’d be ok, right? In this adorable book, aptly named Maybe, we meet 3 little monkeys who hear from their mom that she is off for a while and that the three have to stay in the tree, because it is DANGEROUS near the mango tree. You know, standard mom warnings (just without mangotrees and tigers in our lives). I could understand that the 3 little monkeys were thinking. And thinking. Because maybe? Just maybe? Looking isn’t bad? Mom never said anything about that. And those mangos are looking mighty fine! I was looking forward what would happen next! Me encanta que este libro les enseñe a los niños la importancia de la obediencia y la seguridad al mismo tiempo que cuenta una historia divertida! Las ilustraciones son muy lindas y me encantan los monitos adorables. Count how many baby monkeys there are. For children getting more confident with counting you could also count how many legs, tails or eyes they have altogether. Make a hand or footprint monkey.Find places for your child to (safely) climb or hang upside down like a monkey – for example a playground in a park. Taste a mango Chris Haughton has returned doing what he does best; creating yet another impossibly fun and beautiful cautionary tale about pushing the boundaries and learning life lessons. In just a few words, he gives us suspense, humour and memorable characters that are taken to heart immediately. […] The bright, primary colour palette and simple shapes and design, this picturebook is so appealing! Cheeky, funny, irresistible…get ready to read this one over and over and over…
