One Day while feeling kind of hungry, a monkey, named Albert, went out looking for the perfect banana. After traipsing through the jungle for a very long, tiring time, Albert finally came across a lovely bunch of bananas; and right there in the direct center was the most perfect, gleaming, wonderful banana he had ever seen in his entire life.
Suddenly, just as Albert was about to peel down the side, the banana wildly came to life! Spitting, sneezing, and hacking, the banana was about to give Albert a cold, when all of the sudden George the Great Yellow Lion came bounding out of the trees with a tissue, covering the banana’s face. The banana was SO angry! He wanted to give his cold to someone else. (For he had gotten it so very long ago.)
Later that night after everything had seemingly calmed down George was sitting down ready to consume his dinner of grapes and boysenberries. While banana, having only the thought of revenge in his mind, was hiding in a bush close to the lion’s camp, holding an ax. As he was slowly prowling his way towards George he raised his ax ready to slice off the lion’s tail. Albert, who was lounging in a nearby tree, saw what was about to occur. Grabbing a coconut out of the tree, he clung to a vine and swung down, knocking the banana over with the coconut. He then picked up the ax and diced the banana into small pieces.
Albert and George had a great dinner of grapes, boysenberries, and banana.
The moral of the story is -‘ Don’t try to eat sneezing bananas from the jungle.’
(Actually it’s -‘One good turn deserves another’.)
“Now who wants a cookie?”
