Come down to the rainforest to meet Tico Tango and his animal friends. Tico Tango wants all of the fruit in the forest, even though it belongs to other animals. Will he learn what's right and wrong? The rhyming text teaches colours and animals, as well as an important lesson about sharing. New paperback edition includes online access to the audio recording of the song performed by Brian Amador.

Book Features:
  • Teaches children to respect items that belong to others and the importance of forgiveness.
  • A playful introduction to the creatures of the rainforest to inspire interest in zoology and conservation.
  • Tightly linked text and illustrations encourage children to interact with the text. Rhyme and repetition promote early reader confidence.
