Book SynopsisAll day long, the monkeys sit around talking their monkey talk and enjoying their big-time monkey dreams.
That is, except Oswego Pete, who is one slick monkey.
He's bent on finding the Easy Life—a place where a monkey never has to bend all out of shape for a banana, or do any hard work, ever.
