"Mummy Lemur knows best"
A cheeky little lemur called Maki is the star of this picturebook, but the lesson he learns will resonate with children and mums everywhere. Maki just doesn’t listen. He never does what Mum tells him and he has an answer to everything. He’s thinks he so big and clever in fact, that he decides to strike off on his own on a big adventure.
It’s not long before he’s regretting his decision – it’s scary in the jungle and he misses his troop. But then he hears a reassuring voice offering help and advice. Who does it belong to? The answer when it comes will be a real and very satisfying surprise. Maki finishes the book heading back to mum, a much wiser little lemur.
The story is rich in drama as well as humour and Helen Penayi’s illustrations of the jungle and its inhabitants are full of warmth and life.
‘Just like all ring-tailed lemurs, Maki liked to bathe in the sun and huddle under the moon. BUT one thing Maki DIDN’T like to do, was LISTEN!’
