Comprehension Activities 5th and 6th Level

The Happy Monkey

Once upon a time there was a sad little monkey. His name was Grafstdhwh.
Grafstdhwh felt extremely unhappy because no-one knew how to say his name.
"You're a weirdo!" the other monkeys would say. "Your name is silly!" Even his own mother teased him! And she had given him the name! Other monkeys like Gerry and Terry and Jerry loved to tease Grafstdhwh all the time.
Oh, life was tough for poor little Grafstdhwh.
But, as time went by, little Grafstdhwh grew bigger and bigger and BIGGER! Indeed, he grew so big, he was easily the biggest monkey in the entire jungle. And he was certainly the strongest.
No-one ever dared to tease Grafstdhwh anymore and this made him VERY happy. Not even Jerry, Terry and Gerry dared to even come near Grafstdhwh anymore! Whenever someone asked him how to say his name, Grafstdhwh would say, "It's easy. It's pronounced, 'SIR'!!!"

And do you know what? Everyone DID call Grafstdhwh "Sir"!!!
