It's time for a swimming hole party! But where are Monkey's friends? He gathers Hippo, Lion, Giraffe, and Elephant with each turn of the page, because sunny days are better when friends are together! In these innovative die-cut board books, each page is successively taller than the one before, giving a clue as to who will join in the fun next, while the layered pages show how all the animals coexist in the same habitat. Three durable flaps on the finale spread allow readers to interact with the book, helping the splashing animal friends trade swim toys as they relax in the sun until the day is done. With sweet, colourful art from world-renowned Japanese artist Junzo Terada, these distinctive board books are perfect for playtime and read-aloud fun.
