A monkey has lost its mother and asks a butterfly for help finding her. The butterfly incorrectly guesses that the mother is several different animals such as an elephant, snake, spider, and bat. Each time the monkey says "no, no, no" and explains why the animal is not its mother. Finally, the monkey reveals its mother looks like it, and the butterfly realizes it does not know what the monkey looks like since none of its babies look like it. The butterfly then takes the monkey home to its mother.

I`ve lost my 馨顎馨!
Hush, little monkey, don`t you cry. I`ll help you to find her, said butterfly. Let`s have a think. How big is she? She`s big! said the monkey. Bigger than me. Bigger than you? Than I`ve seen your mum. Come, little monkey, come, come, come.
No, no, no! That`s an elephant. My mum isn`t a great grey hunk. She hasn`t got tusk or a curly trunk. She doesn`t have great thick buggy knees. And anyway, her tail coils round the trees. She coils round the trees? Than she`s very near. Quick, little monkey! She`s over here.
No, no, no! That`s a snake. Mum doesn`t look a bit like this. She doesn`t slitter about and hiss. She doesn`t curl round a nest of eggs. And anyway, my mum`s got more legs. It`s legs we`re looking for now, you say? I know where she is, then. Come this way.
Mum isn`t black and hairy and fat. She`s not got so many legs as that! She`d rather eat fruit than swallow a fly, And she lives in the treetops, way up high. She lives in the trees? You should have said! Your mummy`s hiding above your head. No, no, no! That`s a spider.
No, no, no! That`s a parrot. Mum`s got a nose and not a beak. She doesn`t squawk and squabble and shriek. She doesn`t have claws or feathery wings. And anyway, my mum leaps and springs. Aha! I`ve got it! She leaps about? She is just round the corner, without a doubt.
No, no, no! That`s a frog! Butterfly, butterfly, please don`t joke! Mum`s not green and she doesn`t croak. She`s not a slimy. Oh dear, what`s a muddle! She`s brown and furry and nice to cuddle. Brown fur why didn`t you tell me so? We`ll find her in no time of we go!
No, no, no! That`s a bat. why do you keep on getting it wrong? Mum`s doesn`t sleep the whole day long. I told you, she`s got no wings at all, And anyway, she`s not nearly so small! Your mum`s not little? Now let me think. She`s down by the river, having a drink!
NO, NO, NO! That`s the elephant again! Butterfly, butterfly, can`t you see ? None of the creatures looks like me! You never told me she looks like you! of course I didn`t I thought you knew! I didn`t know. I couldn't! You see...
...None of my babies looks like me. So she looks like you! Well, if that`s the case We`ll soon discover her hiding place.
No, no, no! That`s my dad! Come little monkey, come, come, come. It`s time I took you home to ...
