Book about monkeys

Monkeys are really cheeky sometimes. They make fun of you for a while, then they make fun of you, and finally they disappear without a word. Who should be curious about their monkey moods! But if you bribe them with a banana or a popsicle, they will become the best storytellers. And fortunately, we know someone who can convince you of this.
Read about the cocky tailed beast, the cooking skills of an orangutan, the frantic escape of a hesitant slow loon, or the sifaka who tricked more than one pirate.
