This fun children's story is also a teaching experience about following rules, and respecting family and friends. Alex and Kisses are twin baby monkeys who live in a children's zoo in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Alex enjoys bullying and playing pranks on his sister Kisses. He doesn't follow the zoo's rules for bathing, eating what is provided him, going to bed at a certain time, and never being out of his area alone. Kisses gets tired of his behavior and tells Alex to play by himself. That's when Alex finds a hole in the fence and wonders off to visit some friends. Alex finds out the hard way just what kind of trouble you can get into when you don't listen Alex has never been alone before, so his adventure teaches him just how important following the rules are. He also learns how much his sister and friends love him, and that they only want what's best for him. Ava Phillips has dreamt of being a writer since she was a little girl in Shelby, North Carolina.
