1. THE STORY OF A MONKEY’S TALE
In the meantime Miss Carole realizes that having fun is good and she decides to change all her rules. Now everyone at the zoo can sing, dance, play games and go on holiday again.
Susan the vet finds Cappuccino at the bus stop. Cappuccino tells Susan about the new rules at the zoo - including no more holidays. Cappuccino tells Susan that he wants to go to Borneo and Susan agrees to buy him a plane ticket. But then Susan finds out that Cappuccino has stolen the money from Mr Jones and she says that he must go back to the zoo. Cappuccino begs Susan to buy him the plane ticket and Susan says that she will see what she can do.
Cappuccino walks around the streets all day. He tries to talk to people but everyone is too busy to stop and talk to him. He finds a bus stop and thinks the bus goes to Borneo.
Pingu, the penguin talks to Cappuccino. He says that Cappuccino should escape from the zoo and go to Borneo. Cappuccino decides to escape, he steals Mr Jones' keys and opens the cage. Just before he leaves the zoo, Cappuccino steals money from Mr Jones.
Then Miss Carole arrives at the zoo - she is the new zoo director. She has new rules for the zoo thatstop all the fun activities. Everyone feels sad, especially Cappuccino who wants to go on holiday and see his family.
There are activities every day: at 9 o'clock there’s Breakfast with Cappuccino, at 10 o'clock its the Recycling Game and at 11 o'clock, there is the Orangutan Quiz. There is a singing competition at 12 o'clock.
Susan telephones Mr Jones at the zoo and Mr Jones rushes to see Cappuccino with the news. At the bus stop, Susan and Mr Jones talk to Cappuccino about what he should do. Should he go back to the zoo or go on holiday?
There’s always lots of fun at the zoo, the animals and the people who take care of the animals, sing, dance and play games. And the animals are allowed to go on holiday to visit their families.

Mr Jones – the zoo keeper
Mr Jones is the zoo keeper who looks after Cappuccino in the zoo. He gives all the
animals their food. He feeds the penguins, the lions and the giraffes. Mr Jones is
forgetful, he never remembers what colour key unlocks which animal cage. He also
forgets what food each animal eats. Would you like to work in a zoo?
Cappuccino
Cappuccino is an orangutan who lives in the zoo. He is planning to go on holiday to visit his
family. He has a big family that lives far away in Borneo. Cappuccino can speak English and
has an important job teaching visitors about animals in the wild. He does a game to practise
recycling and a quiz about orangutans – do you have a question for Cappuccino?
Miss Carole – the zoo director
Miss Carole is the new zoo director at the zoo. She doesn't like singing, dancing and having
fun. She has some new rules for the zoo. One of the rules is to stop animals going on
holiday to visit their families. Miss Carole is bossy and she likes to order Mr Jones around.
