Unknown Story
Storyboard Text
- Grandfather bought toto from a tonga-driver for the sum of five rupees. The tonga-driver used to keep the little red monkey tied to a feeding-trough, and the monkey looked so out of place there that grandfather decided he would add the little fellow to his private zoo.
- We found that the walls, which had been covered with some ornamental paper chosen by grandfather, now stood out as naked brick andplaster. The peg in the wall had been wrenched from its soket and my school blazer which had been hanging there was in shreds.
- When Toto was finally accepted by grandmother he was given a comfortable home in the stable, where he had for a companion the family donkey,Nina.On Toto’s first night in the stable,Grandfather paid him a visit to see if he was comfortable. To hissurprise he found Nana, without apparent cause, pulling at herhalter and trying to keep her head as far as possible from a bundle of hay
- A great treat for Toto during cold winter evenings was thelarge bowl of warm water given him by Grandmother for his bath.He would cunningly test the temperature with his hand, thengradually step into the bath, first one foot, then the other until he was into the water up to his neck.
- A large kitchen kettle had been left on the fire to boil for teaand Toto, finding himself with nothing better to do, decided toremove the lid. Finding the water just warm enough for a bath,he got in, with his head sticking out from the open kettle. Thiswas just fine for a while, until the water began to boil.
- One day, at lunch-time, a large dish of pullao stood in thecentre of the dining-table. We entered the room to find Toto stuffinghimself with rice. My grandmother screamed — and Toto threw aplate at her. One of my aunts rushed forward — and received a glassof water in the face. When Grandfather arrived, Toto picked up thedish of pullao and made his exit through a window. We foundhim in the branches of the jackfruit tree, the dish still in hisarms. He remained there all afternoon, eating slowly through therice, determined on finishing every grain.
