PreS-Monkey twins Chimp and Zee celebrate their birthday with great glee. A mailbag full of special-delivery birthday cards and two scooters with tooters from Papakey start their day off in high gear. But, best of all, their friends surprise them with an elegant birthday tea in a huge striped
tent in Jungletown. A glitch en route sends the monkeys on a detour through the slimy swamp, where they meet an alligator and get lost, but all ends well after a few scary moments. The bright cartoon illustrations capture the story's energy and humor. Preschoolers will delight in celebrating the twins' birthday and will especially love the large foldout that shows all of the party details.
