It's George's first trip to the library and he can't wait to hear the book the librarian chose for story hour! But it's hard for a little monkey to be patient, even when the librarian is reading a story about bunnies. George likes bunnies, but when he spies a dinosaur book on the table near the story circle, he has to have it! Now he sees a cart he can push along and he adds a book about elephants. And one about boats, and kites, and baking cakes...! Will this book-happy monkey turn the library upside down to find the perfect story? This edition features library tips, a library maze, a colour-your-own bookmark, and downloadable audio!
