On a sugary paradise, Monkey enjoys endless treats, while Fox struggles on a barren land. As their worlds shift, they must learn that no creature thrives alone. Will they discover the power of sharing and conservation before it's too late? Dive into a tale where fortunes change and friendships blossom in unexpected ways.
Ben Zhu’s Dessert Island is an irresistible picture book about sharing and caring. Monkey is on a dessert island. It is made of frosting, berries, and other delicious things. Fox is on a desert island. It is made of dirt, rocks, and sand. But as time goes on, their fortunes change, and Monkey and Fox discover that no animal is an island. This wonderfully layered story has themes of consumption and conservation at its center, and wraps up with a sweet and satisfying ending.
