One Spring Day, Jim Panzee woke up feeling silly, and ran through the jungle laughing. The gorilla Norman told him he had spring fever. Jim was afraid and tried to find a cure for his spring fever until Water Buffalo told him that he wasn't sick but just full of too much energy. After trying everyone's remedies to calm down, he tried embracing his energy and playing lots of games and doing many things. What happened to the other animals in the forest when they saw Jim having so much fun? 

I am always a fan of Grumpy Monkey's antics, and Spring Fever is no exception. His excited playfulness is very catching. The cute, silly, imaginative illustrations make me smile.
