Limerick – Jemsbooks – Sebastian!

Sebastian Meets Marvin the Monkey

 

Here’s another limerick to enjoy from Jemsbooks’ Children’s Books. I have been having a grand old time writing these limericks each day. I hope you are enjoying them too!

This one is about my seventh published book, Sebastian Meets Marvin the Monkey (2015).

Limerick

There once was a boy named Sebastian,

Who visited the zoo with his radio, a distraction.

The music the monkeys heard

Made their dancing quite absurd.

Now the animals are having fun with Sebastian.

Here is another version:

There once was a monkey named Marvin,

Who for love and respect was starvin’.

When along came a boy

with a musical toy

and now Marvin is no longer starvin’.

Sorry, these limericks can get a little silly at times!

Sebastian cover 2

Sebastian is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Create Space.

Blurb:

When a little boy, Sebastian, goes to the zoo he meets Marvin the monkey. Sebastian loves monkeys and likes to watch them climb the trees. Something amazing happens when Sebastian’s toy phone suddenly plays music.

Jemsbooks young children’s books have life lessons within the stories that promote good values and behavior in children. Sebastian teaches children the importance of being kind and respectful toward animals. This is a fun book for preschool children. It’s like a dance party which they can get up and take part! Check it out today.

This book was dedicated to my youngest grandson, Sebastian, who has his own stuffed monkey which he treasures.

Do you want to know how a mobile phone ring will affect zoo animals? I am not giving it away! You will be amazed when you read this book. Let me suffice to say that your little person will be introduced to many different zoo animals. That in itself will be fun enough. But what are those animals doing? Guess! Nice monkey business, Janice!
