Once upon a time, in a jungle far away, there lived a mischievous monkey. He was always up to some pranks and mischief, swinging from tree to tree with a mischievous grin on his face. However, there was one thing that always made him forget about his mischief - food!
One sunny day, the monkey was swinging through the jungle when he caught a whiff of something delicious. He followed the scent until he stumbled upon a picnic blanket laid out in a lush green meadow. The blanket was adorned with an assortment of mouthwatering fruits - juicy watermelons, ripe strawberries, and succulent grapes.
The hungry monkey's eyes widened with delight. He couldn't resist the temptation and quickly grabbed a bunch of bananas from the picnic blanket. But just as he was about to take a bite, a group of friendly animals approached him with smiles on their faces. They had seen the mischievous monkey and wanted to share their fruits with him.
Feeling guilty for his greedy act, the monkey put down the stolen bananas and accepted the kind gesture of the animals. They handed him a ripe banana, which he gladly accepted. The monkey realized that sharing food with others brought him more happiness than eating alone.
Moved by the act of kindness, the monkey decided to change his ways. He understood the value of asking for food instead of taking it without permission. On his journey through the jungle, he came across a kind-hearted old woman who had a basket full of ripe bananas. The monkey politely approached her and made a request, 'Excuse me, ma'am, may I have a banana to satisfy my hunger?' The old woman smiled warmly and handed him a banana.
From that day forward, the monkey learned the importance of asking for food politely and sharing with others. He became known as the 'Polite Monkey' in the jungle, loved and respected by all the animals. And whenever he felt hungry, he would ask for food with a smile, knowing that kindness and manners always lead to a full belly and a happy heart.
