NAME:
Monkey Ivo is working on a problem.
- I need somewhere to hide the key to my house. What could I use? - He wonders.
He looks around the lab and sees a coconut.
– Huuumm… – he says. - I could put my key inside the coconut and leave it by the front door. No one would imagine a key hidden inside.
So he picks up a saw.
“I'm going to cut a hole the size of my hand and get the water out,” he says. And he does just that.
“I better test if it works,” he thinks. He throws the house key into the hole.
“Now I'll put my hand inside and pick it up,” he says softly. But when he takes the key inside the coconut, he realizes that his hand is too big to get out. She gets trapped inside the coconut!
- Oh no! - He whimpers, jumping and trying to free his hand. But she was really stuck.
A little later, he knocks on the Hippopotamus family's door. Horacio opens it. He starts to laugh when he sees Ivo's hand in the coconut.
- May I help you? he asks, trying to stop laughing.
'Oh yes,' Ivo says unhappily. Could his father get him out? – he asks, pointing to the coconut. - My hand and the key are trapped inside.
Horacio shows surprise.
– Did you try to release the key first? - he asks. – Your hand will get smaller.
Ivo releases the key. His hand lets go of the coconut.
– Wow, Horacio, thank you very much! - He exclaims.
