Summary "Mappo, the Merry Monkey: His Many Adventures" by Richard Barnum is a children's fictional narrative written in the early 20th century. The story follows the escapades of Mappo, a clever and playful monkey living in the jungle, highlighting his adventurous spirit and encounters with various animals, including a tiger and his eventual capture by humans. The opening of the book introduces readers to Mappo, a little monkey who lives with his family in a tree. Mappo is characterized as the brightest and most mischievous of the family, often concocting tricks and games with his siblings. The plot kicks into gear when a tiger threatens the monkey family, prompting them to stay safely in the trees. Mappo's curiosity leads him to a series of adventures, starting with attempts to open a coconut under the watchful gaze of his mother and stirring up mischief with his brothers and sisters. The story sets a whimsical tone filled with playful interactions and a cautionary tale about safety in the wild, all while establishing Mappo's charming personality.
