9 with nothing to do

Five Little Monkeys With Nothing to Do Written and Illustrated by Eileen Christelow Clarion Books/ New York

It is summer. There is no school. Five little monkeys tell their mama, "We're bored. There is nothing to do!" "Oh yes there is." says Mama. "Grandma Bessie is coming for lunch, and the house must be neat and clean.

"So… you can pick up your room."

Five little monkeys pick up and pick up and pick up… …until everything is put away.

"Good job!" says Mama. "But we're bored again," say five little monkeys. "There is nothing to do!" "Oh yes there is," says Mama. "You can scrub the bathroom. The house must be neat and clean for Grandma Bessie."

So five little monkeys scrub and scrub and scrub until the bathroom shines.
