Quarto. 7, (1)pp., + a pop-up section at the end of the book. A short tale about two adventurous children who travel into the jungle, despite their mother's warnings. The story opens with a black-and-white illustration showing the two boys amidst the creatures of the jungle. A labeled guide to all of the animals mentioned in the story, in full color, is at the end of the story. With a stunning, colorful, three dimensional pop-up of a jungle scene full of animal life, complete with the cut-out figures of Moko and Koko laid in, as well as the monkey who slides along a vine. Bound in bright, illustrated boards, which depict the two boys riding on the back of an elephant. Mild rubbing to edges, else fine.
