THE MONKEY WHO LOVED CHOCOLATEfrom a free story download called StoryNory

As you all know I don't have audio stories, mainly because everybody else seems to have them now, and I do like to think that you can read these stories with family or friends, or even both.
So even though I have downloaded the story, I have placed it here for you to read yourselves.
Original pictures for Storynory by Sophie Green.

This is a story about a very unusual boy, and an even more unusual monkey. The boy was out of the ordinary as boys go, because he didn’t like chocolate. No, not at all. Not even one little bit. And I must stay, I’ve never met a boy like that. Not in my entire life. And the monkey was unusual because he absolutely adored chocolate – this
particular monkey went absolutely bananas for it – and as you may guess – very few monkeys are mad about chocolate, if only because, they’ve never even tasted it.

The boy was called Jim, and the monkey was called Theodore, or Theo for short.

One day, Jim’s Aunty Judith took him to the zoo. Jim’s mother had
told her that Jim didn’t like chocolate, but she didn’t believe that.

“Poor little thing,” she said to herself. “His mum won’t buy him
chocolate because she’s too mean. But I’ll buy him an nice lovely bar
and give it to him while we are out.”

And that’s what she did. Only it was true. Jim really didn’t like chocolate.

“Oh thanks Auntie Judith” he said when she gave it to him. “That’s really kind of you. I’ll just save it for later, if you don’t mind.”

But he did like seeing all the animals in the Zoo. The prowling bears weren’t at all cuddly – but they were super cool all the same. The giraffes had lovely soft noses, but the snakes in the snake house made Jim’s blood run cold – but he liked being scared really, – just a bit.

And the monkeys – well everyone loves monkeys. They looked silly but intelligent all at the same time. And in particular, one was nicer than
all the others. He came up to the bars of the cage and pressed his face through them. That little monkey was Theo. Jim thought he looked hungry, and then he remembered the bar of chocolate in his coat pocket,
and decided to give it to him.
