"Counting Crocodiles" softcover book by Judy Sierra 

"Poor Monkey. All she has to eat are sour lemons --- morning, noon, and night. One day she spies a banana tree on a faraway island, but the only way to get there is to navigate the crocodile-infested waters of the Sillabobble Sea. That's no problem when you're a brave and clever monkey who knows how to count to ten and back."
