Amanda Weldon: 我讲述了一个关于一只名叫扎恩的猴子的故事，他喜欢恶作剧，但他的恶作剧并不总是被别人欣赏。故事讲述了扎恩如何捉弄其他动物，以及他最终如何因为捉弄一只名叫萨努拉的豹子而受到教训。萨努拉最终用一个恶作剧来报复扎恩，让他明白恶作剧并不总是那么有趣。 这个故事改编自西非寓言，强调了玩笑和恶作剧的界限，以及考虑他人感受的重要性。扎恩的恶作剧一开始很有趣，但当他的恶作剧导致萨努拉受伤时，事情就变得严重了。这个故事提醒我们，即使是无意的恶作剧也可能造成伤害，重要的是要为自己的行为负责。 Zane: 我是扎恩，一只喜欢恶作剧的猴子。我认为自己是丛林里最有趣的人，但我的一些恶作剧并没有被其他动物欣赏。我捉弄过树蛙、蟒蛇、大象和长颈鹿，但他们并不觉得我的恶作剧好笑。我甚至把萨努拉的尾巴绑在了树上，这让她很生气。虽然我一开始觉得很有趣，但当萨努拉因为我的恶作剧而生病时，我感到很内疚。我意识到我的恶作剧给别人带来了伤害，我为此感到后悔。 Sanura: 我是一只名叫萨努拉的豹子。我被扎恩的恶作剧捉弄过，他把我的尾巴绑在了树上。这让我很生气，我试图抓住他，但没有成功。后来，一只丛林婴儿帮我解开了尾巴。我意识到对付恶作剧者的最好办法是用恶作剧来回应，所以我假装生病，让扎恩以为是我的恶作剧导致我生病了。我用这个恶作剧来教训他，让他明白恶作剧并不总是那么有趣。 bush baby: 我是一只丛林婴儿，我帮助萨努拉解开了尾巴，并告诉她扎恩经常恶作剧。我曾经也被扎恩捉弄过，他让我去亲吻一只巨嘴鸟才能和其他的孩子一起玩耍。我花了很长时间才找到一只巨嘴鸟，但最后发现巨嘴鸟根本没有嘴唇。我帮助萨努拉捉弄扎恩，因为我认为恶作剧应该适度，不能伤害到别人。我们一起策划了一个计划，让扎恩以为萨努拉因为他的恶作剧而生病了。看到扎恩因为自己的恶作剧而感到内疚，我感到很高兴，这让他明白恶作剧并不总是那么有趣。
