    The Allen’s Swamp Monkey is a “strong, stocky primate” covered in a gray and greenish fur. The toes and fingers of the monkey are webbed which allows them to swim well. The males are usually larger than the females and they are really active primates. Their origins can be traced from the Congo Basin to western Zaire.

    Dawn breaks over the horizon in the remote wilderness of the equatorial forests of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and a large community of bonobos splits up for the day. Stomach gurgling, a bonobo wanders off with his group in search of food. Moving as swiftly and majestically as a gymnast, the bonobo swings from tree to tree, its kind brown eyes scanning the trees of the Salonga National forest in search of fruits and insects for ingestion. The ape and his group travel together and go about their day in search of anything but trouble. Thick black hair stands out, not blending with the tree trunks, making the apes somewhat easier to see in the dense forest and giving them a disadvantage over their human predators. When the sun begins to descend over the thick forest, the original community reunites to nest for the night. Once reunited, the apes begin to hoot and squeal, filling the twilight with a variety of high-pitched screams and noises that make them sound as if they’re singing a song. After concluding their…

    Okay, so there's this place called the Sky World, and there lives a man and his wife who is expecting a child. And there's a tree in the center of the Sky World that no being is allowed to eat from. *sounds familliar?* Don't touch the tree, don't eat from the tree, don't pee on the tree, don't look at the tree, don't think about the tree! Well guess what? The wife is having her weird craving as most pregnant women do and she demands of her husband to get the tree's roots so she can eat them. He's like "But we's not suppose to," and she's like "GIMME FOODZ!" so he goes and starts digging up the tree roots and he breaks a hole in the sky and he's like "OMG" and runs away and then the wife is like "FINE I'll get it myself" so she goes to the tree and sticks her head down the hole to see what she can see, and she sees the sea. The she falls down the hole, and birds carry her onto the back of a turtle and she offers to plant the roots she got from the tree for them to grow foodz but there's no dirt on the giant flying ball of water we call Earth, so all the little animals start swimmin' down to reach the bottom and find dirt but none of them can do it, and then the Muskrat is like "I can do it!"…

    The Bite of the Mango is the true story of Mariatu Kamara, a girl born in Sierra Leone. Sierra Leone, an impoverished country on the west coast of Africa, was in a horrific civil war while Mariatu was a child. Despite the poverty in her tiny rural village, Mariatu’s first few years are happy ones, filled with friends, games and chores. Mariatu’s father has two wives, neither of whom seems very pleasant. Mariatu is given to an auntie to raise, which likely would have been a great idea had the village not been attacked by rebels. At the age of 12, Mariatu had her hands amputated by boy-rebel soldiers. She had been previously raped and impregnated by an older man in the village who wanted to marry her.…

She wouldn't have liked to admit that her mother had been right. “Monkeys at a birthday?” her mother had sneered. “Get away with you, believing any nonsense you're told!” She was cross, but not because of the monkey, the girl thought; it's just because of the party.…

    The Ants and the Grasshopper The ants were spending a fine, cold winter’s day drying grain, while all of the other animals were hibernating. They were talking about how much effort they put into getting the grain, in the hot, yet breezy summertime, and how many scars they had gotten from bears who had stepped on them. Then, one of the ants saw a grasshopper lying on the ground, and said, “Hey you guys, over here.” When the rest of the ants got there, the meanest ant went up to the grasshopper. Then the grasshopper looked up and said, “Auntie, is that you?” The ant replied, “I’m not your aunt! Wait…” “Are you sure?” the grasshopper asked, “’Cause you look just like her.” “Yes I’m sure!!” answered the ant, “Was your aunt an ant?” Then the grasshopper replied, “No, are you an ant?” At that point, the ant was nearly bursting with anger, and said in the most ferocious voice you could ever imagine to come from such a little fellow’s mouth, “YES I’M SURE!!!!!!!” As anyone could have seen by now, the grasshopper was too mentally slow, so that he wasn’t even afraid of the ant, and said, “Ok, in that case, can I have some food?” “No!!” answered the ant. “What did you do all summer?” “I spent my time singing because I had nothing better to do,” replied the grasshopper, “What did you do?” “I gathered food like all the rest of the creatures!” answered the ant. “And if you were foolish enough to sing all summer you must dance to bed without food in the winter.” “What?” asked the grasshopper. “We won’t give you any food!” answered the ant. “Well why didn’t you say so in the first place?” Then both the ants and the grasshopper went on with their business.…
