THE CURIOUS MONKEY
A
carpenter was working hard to divide a log into two parts. He was sawing from
morning to noon, but was able to cut only half-way through. He was hungry. So
he pushed a wedge into the split and went for lunch.
A
monkey was watching the carpenter. He became curious of the wedge. He climbed
down from the tree and went upto the log. He tried to pull the wedge. It did
not yield.
He
sat on the log with legs on each side. The tail was dangling down through the
split. He tried again and again. All of a sudden, the wedge came out. The log
stuck together with a snap cutting off the dancing tail with it.
The
monkey lost its tail because of his curiosity.

YOU LEAP
