5 Little Monkeys Jumpin' on the Bed: A Sing 'N Count Book

This short volume is attractively illustrated and includes five familiar stanzas of the ever-popular title; it is a hit with our household's 4-year-old, who likes to sing at least one of our three "Genius" titles every night before going to bed. The book comes across well in Kindle format (not all books with illustrations do) -- the colors are bright and clear on our Android tablet. Simple arithmetic is suggested, to count down the monkeys from five to zero, a very, very basic way to introduce math. , "Genius" seems be a bit of hyperbole but it's an attractive, fun book that pleads to be read, chanted or sung aloud.

This song is possibly the all time favorite of daycare and nursery school children here in the US. The repetition is simple; children love using their fingers to count and sing along. It also introduces the concept of subtraction.Children will enjoy watching the monkeys' antics in the illustrations. While no audio is provided in this book, readers are given a link to follow to hear a audio rendition of the music. Be forewarned that once your child learns this song, you probably will not be able to get her to stop singing it!

Colorful, bright and certainly appealing to young children, I personally think the other Baby Genius books are better. If you are under the impression that this is a sound book, it is not! Of course all the words are there and it is a common tune so your whole house can soon be singing along!Every time a monkey falls off the bed the dinosaur doctor says "No more monkeys jumpin' on the bed." How does it end? The monkeys are all fast asleep in the bed.Important to note that this book on Kindle only works on the FIRE. If you do not have a Kindle Fire there are some other options, one of which is the Cloud which is where I read my copy.

Ordered for grandson and he enjoyed it.

It's the same song we've grown up loving but with these cute pictures it has a nice little twist. It shows Mama calling the doctor and the doctor answering which I've never seen before. It's usually just the 5 little monkeys jumping on the bed ;) The illustrations are nice and colorful.

We enjoyed reading this funny story. I loved the rhyme. Good option for English learners and nice graphics also. Excellent

This is one of favorite story time books that I enjoyed as a child. The monkeys are bright and colorful and you can easily begin to sing along as you read this aloud to your kids. I was excited when I saw this a freebie and quickly snatched it up. If you have a younger child this is a great book to help introduce counting and subtracting.

My kids they love this book and like dancing around while reading it. He likes to pretend he's jumping like the monkeys.

I thought the book would read to you. It doesn't.

Ein echter Ohrwurm, in unserer bilingualen Krippe DER Hit schlechthin. Seite für Seite kann man die Geschichte verfolgen und (wer es noch nicht auswendig kann) den Liedtext lesen.

there was an error with the download so couldn't open the book.
