The Squirrel Monkey e-book is another way to experience the richness of this story. You can hear the text spoken in English and the home language. There is a video which plays back images from the book and the English text is spoken, thereby reinforcing words and pictures, an essential way for learning. There are also a series of activities that are designed to increase English vocabulary and a check of comprehension. 
The following is a summary of the story. 
From the green tropical forests of Latin America, we present a story that teaches us acceptance and the power of mindfulness. Cori is a playful energetic monkey. Sometimes however, situations arise where he is overwhelmed by his big feelings. They are not necessarily tantrums, but something bigger that cannot be labelled easily. When no one can contain Cori's distress, his mother resorts to slow meditative breathing. This helps her to see clearly, notice the leaf ants (who are in every page but barely noticeable!) who leads them to a place of calm and quiet. 
Elisabeth Alvarez Alfaro's reading of her own story is remarkable and builds a calm soothing experience of the book. Jesus Gaban's illustrations sparkle when viewed on screen. 
Squirrel Monkey is part of the 'IFeel' series of books that explore emotions, particularly in first generation children new to English.
