A fun, yet worrying part of a visit to a safari park is driving through the monkey car enclosure and watching the monkeys descend and begin to dismantle windscreen wipers and aerials. Led by Banana Bill, the smart troop of monkeys have acquired a huge number of spare car parts, including the engine. Under the watchful eyes of the other safari animals, they monkeys begin to assemble a car. Their ingenious plan works. Wearing disguises, they affect an escape to a faraway holiday destination in the sunshine. This beautifully illustrated book is fun, clever and perfect for KS1 children who will enjoy the monkey mayhem. It also provides superb talking points and inspirational ideas for teachers and parents.
