Once upon a time....

Wait! This isn't a book of fairy tales. In fact there are NO fairies in any of these funny short stories (you'll have to wait for my new book to come out for that). But if you're looking for funny, whimsical tales that will get both your child AND you smiling and laughing, then this book of short stories for kids is exactly what you need.

As a children’s author, I have the distinct pleasure of being responsible for sparking the imagination of today’s kids. By taking them away to other worlds through my kids books, introducing them to crazy and whimsical characters, and making them laugh along the way, I have one of the best jobs in the world! Writing childrens books has been very fulfilling.

Inside the pages of Just Monkeying Around are nine stories that are perfect for young readers (or listeners!). This collection is sort of a "best of" from my Funny Things I Heard at the Bus Stop series of books for kids. There are stories from each of the three volumes, considered the most favorite stories by my readers and feedback from my newsletter recipients.

In addition to the Best Of stories I've included an ALL NEW story about a young girl monkey named Mopsy Monkey. Mopsy will be the spokesmonkey for my new series - Mopsy Monkey Illustrated Books! It's a series of illustrated books with cute rhyming stories that kids of all ages will surely love.

Out of all of the short stories collections that I've written, this book has some of my BEST stories ever! So if you're looking for funny books for kids, this book will be a great addition to your collection.
