Mona is a stuffed spider monkey who was made in China and shipped to Costa Rica, packed in a cardboard box along with other stuffed toys. Some of the other stuffed toys in the shipping box talked about a wonderful place to live called San Diego, California, and Mona eventually landed there in the carry-on luggage of Cindy. In San Diego, Mona gets adopted by Mike and Cindy. Together, the family travels across the United States of America and experiences many adventures. Mona has a tale to tell about all the cities she has been to. Some are fun, some are goofy, but all are as interesting as they can be. Mona and Cindy live San Diego, California, and are passionate about writing. This passion blossomed when she received the great gift of a grandson named Wolfi. Cindy has since then been writing stories for Wolfi, who enjoyed these stories so much that Mona and Cindy decided to share them with all of you.
