Hum,Hum,Let me pass please!
by Nabiha Mheidly
Description
Karkar is a monkey that goes to the coconut and banana jungle every day. On the way, he always sees his neighbor, the tiger, sleeping on the tree. "Ehem… Ehem… Please let me pass", Karkar says. Then, the tiger takes his hanging tail and wishes him a happy day. The duck is Karkar’s other friend. When she sees the monkey wants to pass, she takes her birdies to the water faster and wishes for him a day full of coconuts. Karkar also sees the squirrel, rabbit, and gazelle, each doing his job. Hearing "Ehem...Ehem... Please let me pass", they clear the road and wish the best for him. One day, Karkar’s friend gives him a handy speaker and says if he uses it, his neighbors will open the path sooner. Then, he will get there soon to collect more coconuts and bananas. This good suggestion works; however, Karkar does not feel good! Why? Because he misses his neighbors and friends and their positive wishes in the morning. Thus, Karkar gives the handy speaker back to his friend and again asks his friends to let him path the road every day.

Reviews
"The story takes place in a small forest where a nice little monkey, Karkar, lives. Every morning,
very early, the little hero used to go to a beach very close to the forest to see his friend Zakzak
and pick bananas and coconuts with him, before returning home at the end of the day.
Karkar crosses paths with many friends, Namour, Sanjoub, Haifa, as well as other animals. He
exchanges a nice word with everyone, before asking him to open the passage for him: "Ehem
... Ehem ... Let me pass, please".
One day, his friend Zakzak offers him a gift, so that he can make the journey faster and quickly
meet him! Great upheaval in the life of Karkar ...
A touching story, which does not leave us indifferent..."
