Monkey Me and the Golden Monkey: A Branches Book (Monkey Me #1)

I've never heard Kieran laugh so much during a What a fun bedtime read! I've never heard Kieran laugh so much during a read. Another cool thing about Monkey Me and the Golden Monkey: A Branches Book is the periodic shift between standard chapter book and graphic novel formats.

When Clyde's his little boy self, it's a chapter book; when he turns into a speedy risk-embracing monkey, it's a graphic novel. The transitions are handled well, adding to the read-a-long fun each time.

Going from text to graphic based on which persona is out in Clyde was a good idea. Sep 07, Julie Williams rated it really liked it Shelves: Apr 17, Sharon Tyler rated it liked it. Clyde is an energetic kid with trouble sitting still, while his twin sister Claudia is much more grounded. During a museum field trip Clyde eats a banana that has been zapped by lasers.

Soon, he starts to feel weird and now every time he gets excited, he changes into a monkey! Monkey Me and the Golden Monkey is a fun and entertaining story that might be the draw reluctant early readers into reading more just for the fun of it. Clyde and his sister Claudia are twins and fit the basic twin standards- one is smart and follows the rules while the other is a little wild. As the wild one Clyde is very excitable- and after eating a laser zapped banana turns into a monkey whenever he starts feeling overly excited. The story is simply told, silly and exciting, and does not talk down to readers.

I think this series just might encourage the newest generation of readers to keep on reading. I would recommend Monkey Me and the Golden Monkey to new and reluctant readers that are either just starting to read novels on their own or have been struggling with reading.

Somehow they are so much more entertaining in books than in the classroom. But regardless, Clyde is basically a good kid with an insane amount of energy that shows itself in lots of fidgeting. Luckily for him, his twin sister, Claudia, is there to help him. But I'm not sure why it is, but monkeys seem to be a naturally funny animal. But after eating ray-blasted fruit during a field trip, Clyde finds himself turning into a monkey when he gets really excited which is quite often. This does not of course help him behave at school resulting in some rather hilarious chases through the school.

Things come to a head however when he discovers something valuable was stolen from the museum while his class was on their field trip there. Can he help save the day or is he bound to just be a silly monkey forever?
