The Reading Warehouse

A new magnet book edition of Julia Donaldson's bestselling picture book

Comes with 10 chunky magnet characters, 4 magnetic scenes to play with and a mini book edition of the original story.

Night Monkey and Day Monkey don't think they have much in common. But when they spend time in the other's world, they learn a lot, and they also learn to be the best of friends.

Julia Donaldson's beloved rhyming picture book story is now available in this fun magnet book format, perfect for little hands and helping children develop fine motor skills. Children can read the story and enjoy playing with the chunky magnets and magnetic scenes over and over again.
