Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

A little girl and her stuffed animal, a monkey, cavort as she imagines and imitates a series of wild animals. The girl’s actions as she pretends to be each new beast can give rise to a guessing game for children, resolved when a turn of the page shows the actual animal mimicked: “Monkey and me, /  Monkey and me, / Monkey and me, / We went to see, / We went to see some . . . /  ELEPHANTS!” The rhythmic, patterned text reads aloud exceptionally well, though the story’s ending is a bit of a letdown. Still, the spare, expressive pencil drawings are charming, and the restrained use of watercolor washes heightens their effectiveness. This upbeat picture book has great read-aloud potential for responsive listening and extended play in storytimes. Preschool-Kindergarten. --Carolyn Phelan

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book For Children 3-5 Years of Age, April 3, 2008
This is a great children's book for children ages 3-5. The little girl with her monkey imitate what animal they are going to see next at the zoo, and then the reader can guess what animal it will be as they turn the page. The repetitiveness of the verse, Monkey and Me, Monkey and Me bring cadence to the story. The illustrations are simple, but full of action and emotion-just right for kids. This story is great for getting the child to act out the different animals.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Storytime Book!, September 6, 2009
This is a great book for a storytime! I have read it to many groups of 1-5 year olds and have had great success with it. Books that let the child interact or move are always a big hit, and this is a fun one. You have to get the children up on their feet...guessing which animal comes next and then acting out the animal in movement. It's sure to be a hit!

4.0 out of 5 stars Monkey see monkey do, April 19, 2007
This review is from: Monkey and Me (Hardcover)
Emily Gravett plays monkey see monkey do with her pronounced rippling art imitating different animals that kids guess out loud. Kids have an affinity with monkeys and Emily's well orchestrated illustrations really effectuate a fun reading session with any young kid.
