Monkey's Encourage everyone to curl up with a good book

Cocoa Optional

In a PSA filmed by the Monkeys Who Play Sports, which began airing last Thursday, they encouraged everyone to curl up with a good book.

"We're all going through a difficult time right now," says Team Captain Gridiron, in the televsion spot. "So why not forget about your problems with a fun novel?"

The Monkeys are then seen reading in a rustic cabin, sipping hot chocolate, and painting each other's toenails.

"Life is tough," continues Gridiron, "So ignore what's going on outside your window, and open a window. In your mind!"

Through the magic of computer animation, a window then opens in Gridiron's head, sucking the rest of the monkeys into a "Vortex of Learning." Inside Gridiron's head, they meet special guest R&B Superstar Pink, who leads them in a hip-hop dance number, "Books (Get All Up in 'Em)."
