An Old Monkey Story With A New Ending
44
It's an old story that we read in Class 3 but with a new
ending.
A hat-seller who was passing by a forest decided to take a nap
under
one of
the trees,
so he left his whole basket of hats by the
side. A few hours later, he
woke
up and realized that all his hats were
gone.
He looked up and to his surprise, the tree was full of monkeys
and
they had
taken all his hats.
The hat seller sits down and
thinks of how he can get the hats down.
While thinking he started to scratch
his head. The next moment, the
monkeys
were doing the same.
Next, he
took down his own hat, the monkeys did exactly the same. An
idea
came to
his mind*
He took his hat and threw it on the floor and the monkeys did
that
too. So
he finally managed to get all his hats back.
Fifty
years later, his grandson, Sukhwinder, also became a hat-seller
and
had
heard this monkey story from his grandfather.
One day, just like his
grandfather, he passed by the same forest. It
was
very hot, and he took a
nap under the
same tree and left the hats on the floor.
He woke up and
realized that all his hats were taken by the monkeys
on
the
tree.
He remembered his grandfather' s words, started
scratching his head and
the
monkeys followed.
He took down his hat and
fanned himself and again the monkeys
followed.
Now, very convinced of his
grandfather' s idea, Sukhwinder threw his
hat on
the floor but to his
surprise,
the monkeys still held on to all the hats.
Then one monkey
climbed down the tree, grabbed the hat on the floor,
gave
him a slap
and
Guess!!! Said
what???
