It’s early morning in the jungle and the little gorilla is NOT happy. Someone has woken him up! As the mystery unfolds, we learn about a chain of events involving an assortment of animals who all played a part — from Butterfly, who touched down on the same flower as Bee, which made Bee buzz, which made Frog croak, which made Crocodile thrash, to Hippo who yawned a great yawn. Find out who woke the baby — and who can cheer him up! — in this great read-aloud for little ones.
