There was an old woman who lived with her grand-daughter. She worked hard every day to make both ends meet and feed her. Her grand-daughter was a lazy girl. One day, the girl was hungry. “Why haven’t you served me food?” she asked. Her grandmother said, “I am cooking, my dear. Wait for a while. And while you wait, have these apples.” The girl threw the apples at her grandmother. The Fairy of Manners happened to be passing by. She saw whatever had happened. She pointed her wand at the unruly girl and said, “Let’s teach you some manners!” Lo and behold! The little girl had turned into a monkey. When the girl’s friends saw her, they threw stones at her. The fairy turned them into monkeys as well. But the grandmother took pity on them. The monkeys promised to be good and the fairy turned them back to their human form.
