One evening, deep in the twilight forest, a baby monkee was born. He had a perfect monkee nose, and perfect monkee ears. His little monkee eyes were bright as a could be, and he grasped for everything he could reach with his little monkee fingers.

Unfortunately, everything wasn’t exactly perfect, though. His mother soon realised that despite her best efforts, her little baby would not eat bananas. Nope! No way! He detested them! Yuck! Bleck! This made her very worried because as you know, ALL MONKEES LOVE BANANAS!

Every day the monkee mum would try to tempt her little boy with banana treats of the best kind, but he wouldn’t eat any of them.

She finally decided she would have to try and get him to eat something else. She picked some marvelous mangos from a nearby tree, but he turned his nose up at those. She gave him oodles of oranges, purple potatoes, tiny tomatoes, and plump, perfect pumpkins, but he didn’t like any of them. Her little monkey baby was starting to get a bit skinny.

Finally, sitting up on a tall tree branch, holding onto her baby and just about out of ideas, she noticed a patch of green way over in a field. Mummy monkee crawled down, and hurried over to the place. She pulled on one of the stalks and — POP! — a lovely orange carrot came out of the ground. Hmmmmmm, she thought. It was a funny colour, but it smelled okay. She gave it to her baby.
