In this charming story, we witness the side-by-side day of two
monkeys, Ed and Ted. Ed's day starts out rather splendid, while
Ted's day, on the other hand, is not so splendid, indeed.
What follows is the day's adventures with Ed and Ted, with the
nice and not so nice characters they meet, and the fun and not
so fun predicaments they get themselves into.
My children enjoyed LUCKY MONKEY, UNLUCKY MONKEY,
especially the humorous sidebars filled with such illuminating
information as "it's difficult for monkeys to make everything they
say rhyme all the time," and "it is an extremely bad idea to play
with a strange dog that is growling and snarling so that its large,
sharp white teeth show."
This is a fun book for kids of all ages, especially those who may
feel that a bad day will never end. Trust Ed and Ted -- for every
bad day, there's a good one. And sometimes, even good days
end on a decidedly bad note!
