## About this book

In Monkey Puzzle, the first volume of the Monkey Puzzle: A funny rhyming story about jungle animals from the creators of The Gruffalo series, a young monkey loses his mum in the jungle. A helpful butterfly volunteers to assist, but each animal the butterfly finds based on the little monkey’s descriptions is completely wrong - from a snake to an elephant. This juvenile fiction picture book blends animal antics with a lighthearted search.

The rhyming story, told in lively verse, finally leads the pair to Dad, who knows exactly where Mum is waiting with a comforting hug. Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s clever tale, part of the family and jungle animals categories, offers a heartwarming look at parental love and the occasional confusion of communication.
