Five little monkeys sitting in a tree discover, one by one, that it is unwise to tease Mr. Crocodile.

An adventurous little monkey who escapes from the zoo and spends the day meeting new friends in the outside world begins to miss his mom when evening comes.

Surely mum will notice the banana skins, the toothpaste, the handprints on the walls . . .
