Reading Week 14: The Monkey and the Crocodile

There was a monkey living by the water and the crocodile living with his family.

One day the mother of crocodile wanted to eat monkey’s heart so she tells her son to get the heart of a monkey who is living by the swamp.  Monkey are like humans but not as intelligent as human and they can use that brain to survive and that is what this monkey did.  The crocodile did not know what to do and he thought really hard how to called that monkey.  Then he got an idea by using food to call the monkey down.  Monkey was stupid enough but not stupid enough to be able to survive. 

The crocodile calls the monkey and said, “there is that amazing fruit on the island on the other side of water.”  The said, “I don’t know how to swim”. Crocodile said, “Don’t worry I will take you there.” Monkey quickly jumped down and ride the crocodile’s back but as soon as they got little bit further away from land the crocodile took him under water but the monkey did not let him go.  Crocodile said, “My mother wants to eat your heart.”  But the monkey quickly thought to tell him that he left his heart on the tree.  It was obvious that crocodile is trying to kill the monkey but he was smart enough that to tell him that he left his heart on the tree.  Crocodile was stupid enough to believe that he left his heart on the tree.  I was happy that nothing happens to the monkey and then monkey moved far away from that crocodile.  The crocodile didn’t give up he kept looking for monkey but he was not as intelligent as monkey and that is why he was never able to catch the monkey.
