THE CLEVER MONKEY AND THE FOOLISH CROCODILE

                                           
       A monkey and a crocodile were best friends. The crocodile’s family was very poor. So the crocodile always asked monkey to give food. Always the crocodile’s family ate the food of monkey only. The monkey gave jamuns, apple and many fruits to ate. Always the monkey and the crocodile shared all the things with them. One day a greedy thought came to crocodile’s wife. The thought was about the monkey. She went to the crocodile and said, Please took the monkey to our home and we will eat the monkey and the monkey’s heart. So we will get more food. The crocodile also liked the plan. So he went to the monkey and said today you must come for the breakfast in our house OK, Asked the crocodile? The monkey also agreed. The crocodile’s words are lie because to eat the monkey. Monkey didn’t know that. Crocodile said that you should sit on my back I will carry you to my home because there was a river in between the way to our home. So monkey sat on crocodile’s back. In the meantime while crossing the middle of the river, The crocodile said to the monkey,”I had cheated you,I will take you home and myself and my wife were going to eat you and your heart. So only I told lie to you,said the crocodile. Monkey got very frightened and he thought of a plan and said to the crocodile,”I have hanged my heart in a tree, Please take me to my home and I will take my heart and come”. The Crocodile also believed that. So the crocodile again dropped it home. The monkey said to the crocodile,”Now I had cheated you and you are a foolish crocodile,How can I hang my heart in the tree?”and ran away to his house and it lived happily.
