Bookroo's summary

A clever monkey, tired of sour lemons, spots a distant banana tree. To reach it, she must brave the crocodile-filled Sillabobble Sea. Can her counting skills help her navigate the perilous waters and claim the sweet reward? Adventure and danger await as she embarks on this daring quest.

From the publisher

Poor Monkey. All she has to eat are sour lemons. One day she spies a banana tree on a faraway island, but the only way to get there is to navigate the crocodile-infested waters of the Sillabobble Sea. That’s no problem when you’re a brave and clever monkey who can count to ten and back!
