After their mama reads to them, it's bedtime for the Five Little Monkeys. But they can't resist reading just one more book . . . or three! Soon Mama is so tired of trying to get her monkeys to quiet down and go to sleep, she picks up their books and takes them with her. At last, the monkeys are ready to settle down . . . until they hear strange sounds from down the hall. Could it be that Mama likes to read in bed too? 

This playful board book addition to the bestselling Five Little Monkeys series features a lively rhymed verse and catchy refrain that's sure to keep young readers chanting along.

Editorial Reviews

Review

  "Reading promotion at its best, with a little bit of bad behavior to spice things up."—Kirkus    "They [children] will continue to be delighted, as this time the monkeys turn the tables on their mother at the conclusion of the tale."—School Library Journal "The interactive text is fun for reading aloud, and the digital line-and-wash illustrations perfectly capture the little monkeys’ zany glee."—Booklist —

5.0 out of 5 stars There are two very different books
Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2012

There are two very different books being sold and reviewed, but they both start out on the same product page. The title of both is "Five Little Monkeys Reading in Bed" and they are both by Eileen Christelow. However, one of them is a hardback with 40+ pages and the other is a paper back with eight pages. The former is the actual book; the latter is a promo put out by Scholastic Books. The problem is that Amazon does not seem to realize there are two different books. On the original product description page, they have the book as having three different formats: hard cover, soft cover and kindle. The description on the original page is correct. However, if you click on the used/paper back format link, it takes you to the eight-page book. Unless, when you are on that page, you click on the link that says "return to product description", and then scroll down and read the description, you will not know that you have started looking at the promo, 8-page book. It is extremely misleading. I ended up ordering the eight page book by mistake, then had to order the hard back. It appears that the original book has not yet been produced as a paper back. The way you can tell the difference between the two versions, is to look for the little red label, centered at the bottom of the cover page. If it says "Scholastic Books," that is the eight page version. I would not recommend getting it....but the hard back book is very cute.

My 6 year old loves this book when we got it from the library! When we weren’t able to return it due to the pandemic, it quickly became his favorite. He has learned to read almost all of it due to repetition. When he started to quote it in conversation, I knew I needed to get him a copy. This seller provided an almost new copy to us and we are overjoyed!

Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2018

Fantastic story to teach rhyme scheme to young readers. The story is full of fun and humor as the five little monkeys try to sneak extra bedtime stories without getting caught by mama. This book is a staple in my 2 year old's bedtime routine. This story has a much better flow and is more fun to read than the other little monkey books.

My almost-four year old daughter loves the 5 little monkey books, and when I saw this one I just had to get it for her. It is so much fun to read, and I love that the monkeys love to read and show how much fun reading is. Of course, these mischieveous little monkeys are reading in bed late at night after Mama told them to go to sleep... but finally they do realize it is time to go to bed, and they can read more tomorrow!

Compre el libro porque a mi hija le encanta la cancióm de "cinco monos saltando en la cama" ahora esta empezando con el ingles y aunque indica la edad recomensable, es un poco denso. Las imagenes son bonitas y el cuento es fiel a la canción, pero es para niños mayores.
