A monkey doesn't fit in with his relatives, the apes. He doesn't like bananas, or swinging in the trees, so he goes off on his own. He discovers he can walk upright; he takes up residence in a cave; and he gives himself a (very) close shave. He is lonely on his own, but he amuses himself inventing things like words and wheels and lawnmowers, and by putting up a shelf, until a companion lady comes by.
Told in the characteristic effortlessly energetic and elegiac verse and pictures we have to come to expect from this classic picture book partnership!
