Counting Crocodiles
by Judy Sierra (Author) Will Hillenbrand (Illustrator)
Poor Monkey. All she has to eat are sour lemons. One day she spies a banana tree on a faraway island, but the only way to get there is to navigate the crocodile-infested waters of the Sillabobble Sea. That's no problem when you're a brave and clever monkey who can count to ten and back!
