Monkey and the Little One

(4) K-3 Monkey enjoys living alone in the jungle until a tiny, adorable mouse wielding flowers and bite-sized jam sandwiches arrives and follows him everywhere. Monkey grows frustrated as each attempt to ditch the Little One (readable as a younger sibling stand-in) fails, but after he finally drives the mouse away he reconsiders. A predictable story line is offset by airy, expressive illustrations.
