Monkey Be. Monkey Do. is a children's story (with questions to discuss and spaces to sketch) about a monkey who forgot how to play. When a playful and talented monkey loses himself in winning and finds himself alone at the top, a wise owl tries to guide him back to the heart of play. But when questions aren't enough to make the monkey feel better, a dangerous fall proves to be just what the monkey needs. Monkey Be. Monkey Do. explores the dichotomous relationship between competition and cooperation; extrinsic and intrinsic motivation; mind and body; head and heart; work and play; and doing and being.
