The Monkey Jar

By Raye Rabbitfoot

The Monkey Jar, by Raye Rabbitfoot is a lively Calypso Sing-Along for children of all ages... With charming illustrations by Lake Jonason and clever watercolors by Michael Nestor, the book depicts the antics of the Green Vervet Monkeys which live on the islands of St. Kitts, Nevis and Barbados, in the Caribbean... The book has a companion CD recording by Calypso Jim of Antigua to Steelpan music... Based on a Nevisian Proverb: "Monkey Has Only One Suit, So He Must Keep It Dry"... The song lyrics follows a wet monkey trying to find shelter from the rain. Each time he is dry and settled in, he faces a dilemma and must run onward.... After running from one colorful island scene to the next, the monkey finally finds refuge in an old traditional WATER JAR, aptly called: THE MONKEY JAR
