TheThree Little Monkeys and the Big Bad Jaguar

Sophie

In the future when all of the rain forests have been saved there lived a family of monkeys. There was a mom, a dad, a siste,r and two brothers. “I’ts time you make your own home,” said mama monkey. “But watch out for the big bad jaguar!” “Ok,” said the three monkeys. Bright and early the next morning the monkeys climbed away with a fifty dollar bill.

Soon the first monkey came to a snake selling leaves. “May I have some leaves?,” asked the first monkey. “Sure,” said the snake. In no time at all monkey one had build himself a house of leaves and gone to practice vine swinging.

Meanwhile in a higher part of the jungle the second brother came to a python selling cacao seeds and sticks. “May I please have some of those?,” asked the monkey. “ Yes,” hissed the python handing the little monkey some cacao seeds and sticks. And just about as fast as his brother monkey two had built himself a house and was playing with the first monkey.

While the others were swinging vine to vine. In an even higher part of the tree’s the third monkey had just came to a macaw selling roots. “May I please have some roots?,” asked the third little monkey. “You bet,” cheered the macaw. It took the rest of the day for the third monkey to make her house but it was worth it!

Sure enough the next day the big bad jaguar came prowling around the area looking for lunch. Now the first monkey saw the jaguar just in time to slam the door shut. “Little monkey, little monkey, let me come in,”,growled the jaguar.

“Not by the hairs of my chinney chin chin”

“Then I’ll scratch and I’ll scrape and I’ll claw your house down.” And of course he did just that! The first monkey managed to escape and run to his brother’s house.

“Brother we must hide. The big bad jaguar is after us,” shrieked the first monkey. So as fast as they could the two monkeys shut the windows and locked the doors. But unfortunately the big bad jaguar found them. “Little monkeys, little monkeys, let me come in,” yelled the big bad jaguar. “Not by the hairs of my chinney chin chins,” cried the monkeys. “Then I’ll scratch and I’ll scrape and I’ll claw your house down.” And he did exactly that.

The monkeys escaped and ran to there sister’s house. “Sister we must hide. The big bad jaguar is after us!,” cried the monkeys. So everyone rushed inside just in time. “LITTLE MONKEYS, LITTLE MONKEYS, LET ME COME IN!,” wept the jaguar. “Not by the hairs of our chinney chin chins,” laughed the monkeys. “Then I’ll scratch and I’ll scrape and I’ll claw your house down.”

So the jaguar tried and tried, but I’m sorry to say that when the big bad jaguar’s claws fell out and he ran into a tree. He went mad and was never seen again.

As for the monkeys, well they lived happily ever after!
