The Clever Monkey and the Crocodile

# The Monkey and the Crocodile A clever monkey once saved his life using nothing but

his sharp intelligence. In a beautiful Indian forest, a smart monkey lived happily on a jamun

tree beside a peaceful river. He loved eating sweet purple jamuns every morning and

sharing them with everyone around. One day, a friendly crocodile appeared in the

river below and the kind monkey threw delicious jamuns down to him. They became best

friends quickly as the monkey fed the crocodile daily with juicy fruits. The crocodile took

some jamuns home to his wife who tasted them and grew greedy for more.

She demanded the monkey's heart believing it would taste even sweeter than the fruits.
