A monkey lived in a tree on a beautiful beach. The monkey liked talking to the fish.

Her best friend was a shark. Every evening, the shark visited the monkey.

The monkey and the shark talked about life in the trees and life in the sea. The shark always wanted to talk about food.

One day, the monkey said she liked delicious palm hearts. 'They are very tasty!' said the monkey, rubbing her stomach.

A few days later, the shark said, 'Hey, monkey! My wife has some delicious palm hearts, and she's cooking dinner for us'.

'Don't worry!' said the shark. 'You can sit on my back. Everything will be fine.' The monkey agreed, and together they went into the sea.

After a while, the shark said, 'You know, monkey... my friend... there's something you should know. You see, my wife is sick. There's only one thing that can cure her.'

'What is it?' asked the monkey. 'She must eat a monkey's heart!' said the shark.

The monkey didn't like this idea and was scared, but said, 'Okay! Of course, my friend. You can take my heart, but there's a problem. My heart is at home. We need to go back to my tree to get it.'
