It was the
strangest day I have ever experienced!
Like any other day, my Mom was driving me to school when I looked over
and saw a baby monkey in my little sister’s car seat! She seemed friendly so I snuck her into my
backpack.
During lunch hour as I ate my food, I noticed
another monkey. Not wanting anyone to
notice, I grabbed the monkey and stuffed him into my backpack. At recess I played on the monkey bars and I looked
over and another monkey was hanging upside down staring at me. He asked me to
play with him! Since he could talk, I asked him where he came from. He said he
was lost and couldn’t find his mother. I
told him about the other monkeys and he jumped into my
backpack.
When I got home
from school, I called my friend and she came over. I took her to my room and
all the monkeys were having a tea party! After my friend left and the monkeys
were sleeping, I watched the news with my parents. The reporter said that some
monkeys had escaped from the National Zoo and that the mama monkey was
heartbroken and about to die.
I told my mom and
dad that the monkeys were in my room and we took them to the zoo right
away. The Zookeeper and the mama monkey
were so happy. I was really sad though because I liked having them for my pets.
The Zookeeper was so thankful that he gave me a free pass to visit the monkeys
at the zoo. I’m really glad I did the right thing by returning the
monkeys.
