Books with title Five Little Monkeys

This fun-to-do jigsaw picture puzzle is boxed with an accompanying board book that tells the Ten Little Monkeys' story. The puzzle consists of 25 large pieces, and when kids put them all together they have a big 13" x 23" color picture that they can construct on the floor or on any other flat surface. It's an entertaining way to encourage toddlers' development of color-matching and coordination skills.
