This is a twist on the class...Monkeys jumping on the bed. There are 5 monsters to begin with swinging from a tree and one by one, they fall off. This is a great story for pre-k and kindergarten to teach basic subtraction. Plus, they are monsters and what little kids don't like books with monsters?

Just like those monkeys jumping on the bed, five little monsters swing from a tree and fall down. What will the doctor say?

Ok book... it's a spin-off of "Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the bed". Cute pictures and good book but I prefer the five little monkeys versions. Probably Level 2 book (maybe Level 1)
