Fantastic book about jani a monkey who is in a wheelchair and is attending her first day of school. She has fun and the other children all make friends with her. She loves playing games and dressing up and is a very cheeky monkey. A great book to learn children that disabilities shouldn't come in the way of friendship. Was able to have a discussion with daughter on why all children like to play

“I liked it when Jani dressed up as a pirate and Abe wanted to turn her into a frog. It was cool that there were three different books in one”. I would recommend this book.

I really liked this book Janni was starting her first day at jungle school but all the kids were really nice to her. Janni was in a wheelchair but she didn't let that stop her from joining in the fun with all the other children. I really liked the teachers name, Mrs Mango.
