A tempting trip to the mango tree

Three little monkeys are left in the forest canopy with a clear instruction: stay away from the mango tree below, where tigers are said to be. Their love of mangoes soon puts that rule to the test, as even a closer look begins to seem tempting. The simple setup turns a familiar childhood tension—knowing a boundary and wondering whether to cross it—into a humorous cautionary tale. Vivid color, bold shapes, and visual humor are part of how the book builds its playful drama.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Suitable for children in the listed 4–8 age range.
  • A choice for families seeking a humorous picture-book story about rules and temptation.
  • Could work well for shared reading and conversation about boundaries.

Book overview

"Perfect for group sharing. . . . Haughton's skilled use of color, composition, and page-turns heightens the drama." --The Horn Book (starred review)

Three little monkeys and their big monkey are sitting high on a branch in the forest canopy. "OK, monkeys! I'm off,"says the big monkey."Remember . . . Whatever you do, do NOT go down to the mango tree. There are tigers down there." Mmm . . . mangoes! think the little monkeys. They LOVE mangoes. Hmm . . .Maybe . . . Maybe they could just look at the mangoes. That would be OK, right? With vivid colors, bold shapes, and his trademark visual humor, Chris Haughton, creator of Don't Worry, Little Crab, crafts a deliciously suspenseful cautionary tale about pushing boundaries--and indulging your impish side (when nobody is looking).
