INFANTILES Y JUVENILES

One fine morning, Jim Panzee wakes up and decides that all he's going to do is play all day. Whether it's tidying his branch, finding bananas for lunch, or even taking a bathroom break, Jim wiggles out of it. For him nothing is more important than having fun. Like so many kids, Jim is great at avoiding his responsibilities. Instead, Jim Panzee spends time swinging with the monkeys, singing with the birds, and rolling around with the zebras. When his friends return home, Jim finds new animal friends so he can keep on playing. But by the end of the day, when Jim is dirty, itchy, and hungry, his best pal Norman patiently tells him “Too much of anything can be, well, too much.” In a world where most kids would love to spend all their time playing, Jim Panzee finds out what happens when that’s all you do.

When Norman shows Jim his pet butterfly, Butterfly-Butterfly, Jim is suitably impressed, especially when Norman spouts butterfly facts. Then Norman adds Beetle-Beetle 1 and Beetle-Beetle 2 and so many more to his menagerie. Now Norman spends all his time feeding and caring for his pets and doesn’t have time to play. Grumpy Monkey Jim feels left out. And when all the bugs have babies, Jim declares that Norman has too many and persuades his friend to set them free. But then Norman sees a ladybug…

Funny monkey Jim Panzee, star of the #1 New York Times bestselling series, is reluctant to join the race in the jungle until banana after banana falls from above.

Then one of the runners bumps into a tree and bananas come raining down! The race to the finish is over as everyone, including Grumpy Monkey, races to get the biggest share of bananas.

Jim Pancé tiene un ataque de gruñonitis y no sabe por qué. Sus amigos no lo entienden: ¿cómo puede estar enfurruñado si hace TAAAAAN buen día? Las cebras le invitan a hacer la croqueta con ellas, los pájaros a cantar y los monos a columpiarse, pero Jim no puede seguir tantos consejos... y se colapsa un poquito. ¿No será que de vez en cuando todos necesitamos ser un poco gruñones?

Pasa página y descúbrelo: aquí dentro la magia tiene su precio.
