Once upon a time there was a forest.
In the middle of the forest there
was a big lake and next to the lake
was a big tree. A lot of animals lived
there as it was peaceful and there was
plenty of food and water. In the tree lived
a very clever monkey. He knew many
things and how to solve many problems
that the other animals could not.
Living in the lake there was a big
turtle and his wife. The turtle liked to go
to the tree and meet the monkey. He
would talk to the monkey and ask him
many questions, which the monkey
would always answer. So they became
very good friends.
The big turtle spent a lot of time
with the monkey and so was away from
home a lot. One day the
big turtle returned home
after being away for a
long time. The turtle’s
wife started to get
suspicious and wonder
where he was going all
the time so she asked
him, “Where have you
been going all the time
and why are you away so
long? Have you got
another woman?” The
turtle looked at her a
little surprised and
then burst out
laughing, “No,” he
said, “don’t worry,
I have a good
friend who is a
monkey. He lives
in the big tree
and he is very
clever and wise.
I have learnt a lot
from him and
that is why I go
there all the
time.” His wife
was relieved and
was happy.
The turtle
kept going to see
the monkey and
was still spending a
lot of time away from
home. After a while
his wife started to feel that the monkey
was more important to him than she was.
So on a couple of occasions she asked
the turtle to stay at home and help her
instead of going to see the monkey. Even
though the turtle stayed he was not
enjoying it and always found an excuse
to get away and then go and see the
monkey. This made his wife very
unhappy and she became very jealous
of the monkey.
One day she said to her husband,
“I am very sick and am going to die. In
the future you will need to take care of
yourself, cook for yourself and look after
the household.” The big turtle was
shocked when she said this. He had not
noticed his wife was ill. “Have you been
“He lives in the
big tree and he is
very clever and
wise.”
