Without seeing his name on the cover, McDermott’s books are recognizable.  His use of bright, vivid colors, texture, pattern and design make his books eye-catching.  The voice as heard through the playful monkey and deadly crocodile are easily identified as McDermott’s.  This ‘Monkey’ tale originates from India and is the last of six books in this series.  The art is a collage of cut and torn paper from the area.  Although this isn’t my favorite book of the six, I would recommend adding this to your McDermott collection.  Students love his storytelling style and will enjoy this book.
