I Love Monkey by Suzanne Kaufman

Every child is a marvel, a unique and irreplaceable gift to the world—but, down deep, not every child believes it. It’s up to us—parents, teachers and grandparents—to let our children know that they are loved and treasured just as they are. That’s what makes the I Love Monkey book so special. Throughout the book Monkey tries to be something special—a squirrel, a bunny, a grasshopper, a fish. But Monkey finally realizes that the most special thing of all is to just be yourself—no one in the whole wide world can ever do that better than you. Share the universal message found in the I Love Monkey book with children, teens, and adults.

Author Bio:
Suzanne Kaufman lives with two monkeys, Eleanor and Katie, who sometimes pretend to be girls. Her story was inspired by them, a series of goofy doodles and a cup of coffee with the really nice people at Compendium. Born in the Midwest, Suzanne grew up with a healthy dose of Saturday morning cartoons and macaroni and cheese. Her style is inspired by lots and lots and lots of monkeys and 50’s-era cartoons.
