It's a dull day in the jungle and Artie the macaque’s friends are bored, bored, BORED!

But with paper, pens and ink, a splash of inspiration, and a pinch of imagination,

Artie creates something magical . . . a book! Filled with hordes of zombie hens, a fire-breathing dragon and robot sharks (yikes!), Artie’s newly-created book busts the friends’ boredom, and the next day they can’t wait to do it all over again.

With a clever book-inside-a-book concept, Help! We Need a Story illustrates the power of imagination and will help to nurture kids’ creative sides. Just like The Dot by Peter H. Reynolds, * Beautiful Oops!by Barney Salzberg and What Do You Do With an Idea?* by Kobi Yamada and Mae Besom, this is the perfect tale for book lovers and any child who enjoys creating their own stories.
