The Sailor

Once upon a time, there was a sailor who had a monkey.

It was called "Norma" and it was so funny!

The sailor took the monkey with him to entertain the other sailors.

When the sailors ate she pretended eating too.

 

One day there was a storm and the sailors were busy all the time.

The monkey was scared. She was funny but nobody was looking at her.

In the sea there were some dolphins.

Dolphins

When the ship started to sink the sailors jumped into the sea and the dolphins took them on their back. The monkey was swimming too and she looked like a human being so a dolphin took her on its back.

Clever monkey

The dolphin asked her: "Where are you from? Are you from Athens?"

"Oh, yes, I am from a famous family," the monkey answered.

"Do you know Piraeus?" the dolphin asked again.

The monkey thought that Piraeus was a famous man in Athens. She told the dolphin: "Yes, yes, I know him. He is our friend and he eats with us in our mansion every day!"

The dolphin understood that the monkey was not a human being and that it was lying.

So it swam very fast and the monkey got drowned.

Serves him right
