The moon shone down on the jungle. Night Monkey climbed up the tree. She climbed up and jumped to where Day Monkey slept, and whispered: 'You can't catch me!'

Day Monkey woke up and chased her, But lost his grip on the bark. He landed, angry, on a bed of moss, Complaining, 'It's much too dark!'

Night Monkey laughed and said:'Don't be daft, they are fireflies that flash in the night.'

'Look!', said Day Monkey. 'Hundreds or eyes, winking and blinking an bright

'Help!' said Day Monkey. 'Flying mice!Or maybe I'm wrong and they are rats.'

Night Monkey laughed and said: 'Don't be daft. Haven't you heard of bats?

Night Monkey laughed and said: 'Don't be daft, it's only a chorus of frogs.'

'Stop!' said Day Monkey. 'Listen!They're sawing the tree into logs'

'Hey!' said Day Monkey. 'There's a banana! How does it manage to fly?'

Night Monkey laughed and said, 'Don't be daft. That banana is the moon in the sky!

Day Monkey yawned and rubbed his eyes'Maybe I'm dreaming', he said 'Night-time is creepy and I'm feeling sleepy I'm going back to bed.

The sun shone down the next morningDay Monkey slid down the tree He slithered and leapt to where Night Monkey slept And whispered, 'You can't catch me!'

Night Monkey woke up and chased him,Screwing her eyes up tight. She came to rest in an empty nest, Complaining, 'It's much too bright!'

'Look!', said Night Monkey. 'Moths wearing make-up!Why are they in disguise?

Day Monkey laughed and said, 'Don't be daft, they are beatiful butterflies.'

'Help!', said Night Monkey. 'Look at those giants, swinging about in the trees.'

Day Monkey laughed and said, 'Don't be daft,Those giants are chimpanzees.'

'Stop!', said Night Monkey. 'Owls, in the colour of peas and carrots!'

Day Monkey laughed and said, 'Don't be daft, haven't you heard of parrots?'

'Hey!', said Night Monkey. 'Naughty monkeys! Can't they keep out of our way?'

Day Monkey laughed and said, Don't be daft, our shadows are here to stay.'

Night Monkey yawned and rubber her eyes'Maybe I'm dreaming', she said 'Daytime is crazy and I'm feeling lazy I'm going back to bed.'

Now Night Monkey sleeps in the daylightAnd Day Monkey sleeps in the night, But now and again at sunrise, When it isn't quite dark or night

They share a bunch of bananasHalf way up a tree Day Monkey calls it breakfast Night Monkey calls it tea
