About the Book
Bad Monkey Business
It’s a rainy, rainy day. Mrs. McGoody is just finishing her housework when she hears a faint knock on her door. She opens the door to find a wet little monkey sitting on her doorstep. And he means business… Bad Monkey Business. Will Mrs. McGoody be able to stop this Bad Monkey from ruining her clean house or is there something else going on that she does not understand? This illustrated story, told in rhyme, is a humorous tale about an unsuspecting woman and a monkey on a mission.
Fast Freddie, The Legend In A Shell
Federico is a desert tortoise who refuses to lead a slow and boring life... so he gets up and runs away. His fast paced adventures lead him across the Sonoran Desert and make him a Southwestern legend in the process. Fast Freddie is a read aloud picture book with a factual glossary for those who wish to learn more about the plants, animals and desert ecology introduced in the story.
