Maybe…
by Chris Haughton
A funny, suspenseful and keenly observed cautionary tale about pushing boundaries and indulging your more mischievous, cheeky side (when nobody is looking).
Three little monkeys, and their big monkey, are sat high up on their branch in the forest canopy. "Ok, monkeys! I'm off," says the big monkey. "Now remember. Whatever you do, do NOT go down to the mango tree. There are tigers down there. "Mmm … mangos!” think the little monkeys. They LOVE mangos. Hmm... maybe… maybe they could just look at the mangos? That'd be ok, right?
“Like some of the greatest traditional fairy tales, there is a genuine sense of threat in Maybe. Another outstanding book from one of Ireland’s most accomplished author/illustrators.”
An Irish Independent TOP CHOICE
“Un album ciselé, parfaitement maîtrisé, dans lequel rien n'est laissé au hasard et qui pourtant semble naturel et coulant de source.”
