Being a monkey can even make another kid laugh! But it can also make another kid cry, and that's when Estie and her grandmother find out what a mensch Estie can really be.

Review: Kohuth writes an amazing story about being kind to others. Often times children have a difficult time communicating with their peers if they do not feel like they have anything in common. Estie did not like Petie at first because she did not know him, but they found out that they liked animals together and that helped spark conversation. At the end of the story when Estie gave Petie her ice cream, she realized that she liked being nice to Petie because it made her feel good inside. Kindness can go a long way and it can sometimes surprise us! ( )
