LIttleist Monkey
A heartwarming journey of bravery, family bonds, and conquering your biggest fears
- Child Books
In the vibrant heart of Sunny Leaf Jungle, little Sonny is a tiny chimpanzee with a giant problem: he is absolutely terrified of heights. While his older brother, Bramble Brush, swings effortlessly through the canopy and his graceful sister, Willow Vine, leaps between branches, Sonny stays rooted to the mossy ground. To Bramble Brush, Sonny is just a 'scary-wary' runt. To Willow Vine, he is a brother who needs a helping hand. But as the annual Family Fruit Feast at the top of the Great Banyan Tree approaches, Sonny realizes he can't stay down forever. When a sudden tropical storm rolls in, the stakes become higher than the tallest tree. Sonny must navigate slippery vines and whistling winds to reach his family. In the face of danger, he discovers that true bravery isn't about being fearless—it's about climbing anyway, even when your knees are knocking. Littleist Monkey is a charming tale for any child who has ever felt too small or a little bit scared. It is a celebration of family support, the strength found in persistence, and the big courage that lives inside the littlest hearts.
