Mrs. Dragon is not well and asks Mr. Dragon to get something to make her well again. It’s a monkey’s heart. The monkey, however, is not keen on this idea and wants to keep his heart firmly in it’s place in his chest!

This Chinese variant of the story of the Crocodile and the Monkey from India is a favourite with everyone. This funny trickster tale might have you reaching for the Panchatantra, where the story came from!
