The palm runs the full height of the page and the monkey is partway up it, reaching for a pair of coconuts tucked under the crown. The trunk is banded into segments the way a real palm is, which gives a long row of narrow shapes to work through from the ground upward.

Six fronds spread from the top. Each one carries a comb of fine cuts along its edge, and those cuts are the most detailed thing on the sheet. A child who finds them fiddly can color straight over the whole frond and it still reads correctly. An older colorist can pick out every single tooth.

Two small tufts of grass sit at the base of the trunk. They anchor the tree to ground that is otherwise not drawn, and they are the one place on the page where a second shade of green does obvious work.

The upright layout suits this subject. Print it beside a beach scene or a jungle sheet and the tall narrow shape fills a gap that wider pages leave open. The proportions hold up at full size, so there is no need to shrink it to fit.
