A sweet, gentle and reassuring story to soothe and comfort any child.
When Little Monkey is frightened by the storm he runs to his mother’s side. “Don’t worry,” she says. “There is always one safe place.” But Little Monkey doesn’t know where to find his one safe place. He searches all through the jungle – in a nest, on an island, in a cave – but none of the places are his one safe place. Tired and sad, Little Monkey goes to find his mother only to realise that his one safe place is much closer to home than he expected.
