This story about an old man and a clever monkey is a very old one. Aesop, a Greek writer, first told the story many years ago. This monkey belonged to an old man. The old man was very fond of the garden, so when birds came to the garden, he chased them away. He also helped the old man in many other ways. The old man often fell asleep during the day in his chair. Then the monkey sat at the old man's side and chased the flies away from the old men's face.      One hot afternoon in the summer, the old man was asleep in his chair. A fly came and sat on the end of the old man's nose. The monkey chased it away. Soon the fly came back and sat on the old man's nose again. The monkey chased it away. This continued for five or six times. The monkey at last became very angry. He jumped up, ran to the garden, and picked up a large stone.
