Product Information

Want ja, je weet hoe kinderen zijn. Het begint met kijken, maar dan gaat het verder! Als lezer zie jij ondertussen natuurlijk al het gevaar aankomen want je ziet in de toffe illustraties al wat gevaar loeren. Waardoor je wenst dat je in het boek kon stappen en even kon waarschuwen! En ze een mango kon geven! Ik vond het enorm spannend worden en al wist ik dat het einde een happy end zou zijn, hallo bijna alle kinderboeken hebben dat, zat ik toch maar te hopen dat ze alle 3 weer veilig zouden zijn. Chris Haughton is an acclaimed Irish illustrator and author based in London. Before becoming a picture book author, Chris traveled the world and worked as a waiter in San Francisco, a handyman in London’s Paddington Station, an English teacher in Hong Kong, and an art teacher in India. On his trips to India and Nepal, he became interested in fair trade and got involved with a number of non-profit projects. In 2007, he was listed in Time magazine's "DESIGN 100"for the design work he did for People Tree. Three little monkeys are warned by their grown-up not to go down to the mango tree because there are tigers down there. The monkeys, thinking they know better, disobey and visit the mango tree anyway.

The three cheeky little monkeys sitting high in the trees have been told specifically NOT to go down to the mango tree because there are fierce tigers about. After the little monkey’s mother warned them to stay away from the mangoes because of tigers, she needed to leave. Will the monkeys listen to their mother? After she left, the only thing the monkeys could think of was how juicy and delicious those mangoes were. Then they start finding all kinds of uses for maybe and the rules. In dit leuke boekje komen we drie schattige aapjes tegen die van hun moeder te horen krijgen dat zij even weg moet en dat de drie veilig op hun takje moeten blijven want het is gevaarlijk bij de mangoboom. Je weet wel, de normale standaard waarschuwing van moeders (alleen bij ons mensen niet een mangoboom maar iets anders). Ik snapte dan ook wel dat de kleine aapjes gingen nadenken. En meer nadenken. En toen kwam de misschien. Want ja, mama had inderdaad niks gezegd over kijken. Teehee. Heerlijk ondeugend en ik keek ook uit naar wat er vervolgens zou gebeuren! When you go shopping choose a mango to buy. At home cut it up and eat some together, talking about the taste as you do. Do some counting But the monkeys love mangoes and the more they think about them, the more they convince themselves that maybe it will be fine just to go and look at the yummy fruit. And then maybe it will be OK to get just a little closer or maybe even snatch that small mango from the nearest branch?Haughton’s picture book about naughty and curious monkeys is a great read aloud. The text is made up solely of the monkeys’ dialogue with one another, so make sure you have at least four monkey voices at hand! With simple text, Haughton creates a book full of building tension that also offers a wild chase scene that will have readers merrily gasping along with the monkeys, before a final twist. A tres monitos se les dice que no vayan al árbol de mango porque hay muchos tigres alrededor. Pero dicen que "quizas" estaría bien solo mirar el árbol de mango. Y tal vez estaría bien comer solo un mango. Pero rápidamente aprenden que la situación es más peligrosa de lo que creían, ¡y hay tigres acechándolos por todas partes! Act out the story with your child one of you being mummy and a tiger and the other one of the baby monkeys or alternatively you could act it out with toys as the monkeys and tigers. Be a monkey A cute and sweet book (with plenty of humour) about 3 little monkey who think that it is safe to look at the mango’s, but is it?

Three little monkeys, and their big monkey, are sat high up on their branch in the forest canopy. “Ok, monkeys! I’m off,” says the big monkey. “Now remember. Whatever you do, do NOT go down to the mango tree. There are tigers down there.” Mmm… mangos! think the little monkeys. They LOVE mangos. Hmm… maybe… maybe they could just look at the mangos? That’d be ok, right?Find places for your child to (safely) climb or hang upside down like a monkey – for example a playground in a park.

Maybe” is a fun story, but also a teaching story about what happens when trying to stretch the rules. This five-star book will be enjoyed by children aged three to seven. Little ones will love trying to warn the monkeys while stating what the monkeys should have done.

This book gives the parent a good opportunity to ask their child if the monkeys should have listened to their mother, and if the monkeys learned anything. You can also ask your child what they would do, and why there are rules. Me encanta que este libro les enseñe a los niños la importancia de la obediencia y la seguridad al mismo tiempo que cuenta una historia divertida! Las ilustraciones son muy lindas y me encantan los monitos adorables. Count how many baby monkeys there are. For children getting more confident with counting you could also count how many legs, tails or eyes they have altogether. Make a hand or footprint monkey. Haughton’s picture books tell stories as much through his idiosyncratic images as through words. This involving, laugh-out-loud tale of monkeys who don’t do as they are told features funny faces, intense colour and a lesson about risk. What the monkeys haven’t seen are the sneaky, fierce tigers cleverly hiding in the undergrowth, lying in wait…The book’s suspense is built with careful pacing and the repetition of particular words. . . An impish adventure. I love that this book teaches children the importance of obedience and safety while also telling a fun story! The illustrations are so cute and I love the adorable little monkeys. In this adorable book, aptly named Maybe, we meet 3 little monkeys who hear from their mom that she is off for a while and that the three have to stay in the tree, because it is DANGEROUS near the mango tree. You know, standard mom warnings (just without mangotrees and tigers in our lives). I could understand that the 3 little monkeys were thinking. And thinking. Because maybe? Just maybe? Looking isn’t bad? Mom never said anything about that. And those mangos are looking mighty fine! I was looking forward what would happen next!
