This is a simple book about the adventures of a monkey  and a cat. The cat hates the monkey, but somehow feels compelled to hang  out with it endlessly. As for whether or not it&#8217;s worth a look, it&#8217;s  hard to say and I&#8217;m being wishy-washy about it. The first half or so  wasn&#8217;t that great, but I still wanted to kill that monkey and that must  count for something. Alan seemed to find his stride a little bit in the  second half.

Just to clarify here, I don&#8217;t mean &#8220;crappy&#8221; in a bad sense, if that&#8217;s  possible. It&#8217;s obviously intentionally pretty basic and it works well  for what he&#8217;s doing here.
