When the baby monkeys' parent leave them alone, they are warned to NOT go down to the mango tree because there are tigers. So they decide tthat maybe a "look" would be ok. But a look turns into a reach which leads to actually visiting the tree where there are, of course, tigers. 

A clever book about trying to bend the rules and what might happen - don't worry, no monkeys were harmed, but the chase is exciting and dangerous. 

 I loved their justifications for going just a bit further - a great books for kids who only think they are a little naughty.
