There was once a monkey and a squirrel who lived in the forest. They were very close friends, and often played together. One day, the monkey got sick, so, the squirrel told him, “Do not worry, my dear friend, for I will take care of you.”Saying this, the squirrel set off to look for bananas, which were the monkey’s favorite food.

The squirrel searched high and low, and climbed all the banana trees in the forest, in search of  bananas for the monkey. Trying as he might until the sun was almost setting, the squirrel could not find a single banana. When he thought of his sick friend, who hadn’t had anything to eat all day, he grew even more desperate. Night came, and the forest animals were returning home to sleep. But the squirrel still hadn’t found a single banana. He started to cry in desperation.

Just then, a fawn passed by the squirrel on his way home. Seeing the crying squirrel, he asked, “Little squirrel, why are you crying here, all alone? Why aren’t you going home to rest?” The squirrel cried and told the fawn about his sick friend, the monkey. After listening to the squirrel, the fawn thought a while and said, “Please wait here for me. I shall return quickly. Please don’t leave before I return.”

The fawn went home and returned with his treasured banana. He passed the banana to the squirrel and said, “Here, please take this banana. Though I have been very reluctant to eat it, I hope it will help your friend to get well soon.” The squirrel took the banana gratefully and said, “Thank you so much! I will surely tell the monkey of your kindness.” The squirrel took the banana home, and told the monkey what happened. The monkey hugged the banana gratefully and said, “Though this is just a single banana, I can feel how much you and the little fawn care about me. I will recover quickly for sure.”

森林裡住著一隻猴子和一隻松鼠，牠們的感情非常好，常常在一起玩耍。有一天，猴子生病了，松鼠對猴子說：「親愛的朋友，不用擔心，我會照顧你的。」說完，松鼠就出門去找猴子最愛吃的香蕉，想要帶回來給猴子吃。

松鼠在森林裡到處尋找香蕉，爬上爬下，翻遍森林裡每一棵香蕉樹，找啊找啊，很快的，太陽都快下山，可是都沒有找到香蕉。松鼠想到猴子不但生病，而且一整天都沒有吃東西，心中更加的著急。天黑了，森林裡的動物也都準備回家睡覺了，松鼠還是一根香蕉都沒有找到，牠不禁著急的哭出來。

這時候，正準備回家的小鹿經過松鼠的身邊，看到正在哭泣的松鼠，就開口問：「小松鼠，怎麼一個人在這邊哭呢？天黑了還不回家休息嗎？」松鼠邊哭邊將事情的經過講給小鹿聽。小鹿聽完，想了想，說：「等我一下，我馬上回來，不要離開喔。」

小鹿趕回家拿出自己珍藏的香蕉，回到松鼠身旁，將香蕉交給松鼠說：「這根香蕉給你，雖然我一直捨不得吃，但是希望它能幫助猴子早日康復。」松鼠感動的接過香蕉，並說：「謝謝你，我一定會告訴猴子你的心意。」松鼠帶著香蕉回到家中，並告訴猴子所有的事情。猴子抱著香蕉感動的說：「雖然只是一根香蕉，但是我可以感受到你和小鹿對我的關心，我一定會早日康復。」
