The Monkey King
The Monkey King was born from a stone. He wanted to live for ever. He was really intelligent and knew what to do. He could change himself into 72 different things, like a tree, a bird or an insect. While he was changing himself, people just watched and couldn’t believe it. He used the clouds in the sky to travel around! One time he flew 180,000 miles on a cloud.
The trouble was, the monkey thought he was the king. But he wasn’t.
The Emperor was. So, the real king decided to give the monkey a
title to keep him quiet. But the monkey found out that everyone was
laughing at him. He was extremely unhappy and decided to fight. At
last, the Emperor asked Buddha for help.
The Buddha moved a great mountain to fall on top of him. As the mountain was falling on him, he nearly managed to get out of the way. He didn’t but he didn’t die either. The trouble was he couldn’t move. Five hundred years later, a monk helped the monkey get out from under the mountain. That’s when the real story began. It’s a great story.
What did the monkey do when he found out that everyone was laughing at him
What did the monkey do when the Buddha moved a great mountain to fall on him
How long did the monkey wait for someone to help him
Besides 72 changes, what else can the Monkey King do
