The Monkey and the Hare were very good friends. They went everywhere together, eating and playing. One day the monkey said to the Hare, come to my house, I have a lot of sweet oranges and bananas. You can have some. When the Hare got to the Monkey’s house the monkey took the oranges and climbed up a tree. The Monkey peeled one of the oranges and ate. The Hare stood under the tree and called out, Monkey. May I have an orange, please? Yes, said the Monkey, but you will have to climb up to get it. Climb? Asked the Hare. You know I can’t climb. Then you won’t get any. Said the monkey and he laughed.
Please, said the Hare. Climb, said the Monkey. The Hare watched as the Monkey ate all the oranges. He was angry. He decided to play his own trick on the Mr. Monkey.
