Monkey’s Jungle Jam, by Victoria Kintner Griswold, is the story of a monkey’s search through a jungle to find musical friends. Young children are invited to move
along to music, listen to a story, and watch ten musicians from the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra perform. Monkey’s Jungle Jam uses common and unusual animals from the jungle to introduce common and unusual instruments found in a symphony orchestra. Musical selections featured in the video include excerpts from Ravel’s Mother Goose Suite, Dvorak’s New World Symphony, Beethoven Symphony #6, and Saint-Saëns’ Carnival of the Animals. Indiana composer James Beckel composed the Finale.

About the branch
The Wayne Branch Library first opened in December of 1969 in a shopping center located at 7341 Rockville Road. Due to high demand, the storefront space was enlarged in 1973, but the need for more space was evident. A permanent 13,500 square foot location opened in 1984, and the branch remains in that same building today. The Wayne Branch underwent a $1.1 million renovation in 2020 to add more seating and activity space, study rooms, and a quiet reading area, but still features the split design of a separate children's and adult wing.
