I was Karla and Joan was Sandy. Our husbands were in the army. That's why they were never around. The monkeys were our kids. We fixed up an empty corn crib like a cool store. That's where we worked to make money to take care of our monkeys since our husbands were off in the war. We could play Karla and Sandy for days.
The real Karla Kuskin is an award-winning author and poet. This image is from her children's book, "Cool Cat, Hot Dog." Sandy Mantle was entirely made up.
