'wondrous stare' is the definition.
'gape' can be an answer for 'stare' (I've seen this before). I'm not certain of the 'wondrous' bit.

'good monkey' is the wordplay.
'good' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'monkey' becomes 'ape' (I've seen this before).
'g'+'ape'='GAPE'

'from' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for gape that I've seen before include "Look with mouth wide open" , "Stare stupidly" , "Gawp" , "Peer" , "Hang wide open" .)
