Story
Once a year, a heavy rain flooded almost all of Africa, except the blue mountain. The animals are getting ready to spend a long time on the blue mountain. None of the animals liked the great rains, so the animals decided to have fun as much as possible. The animals decided to have a little fun across Africa. Every year, the animals take turns going on the tree to notice the first raindrop from the great rains.

The monkeys are very bored while trying to look out for a dark cloud. The monkeys decided to have fun rather than keep an eye out for dark clouds. The animals are warned that the great rains are arriving across Africa. The animals must go to the blue mountain to avoid the flood. The animals saw nothing but blue skies while trying to look for a dark cloud.

The monkeys made a wrong prediction. They also thought there was a single raindrop on one of the flowers. Instead, there was a drop of nectar on one of the flowers. The animals are warned again. However, the monkeys made another wrong prediction. The monkeys are just jumping on the fruit, which sprayed more juice at the animals.

There is still no dark cloud as the animals returned to the mountain. Herbert found out that there is juice on Toby. The animals are angered by the monkeys for playing another joke. The monkeys are moved to another tree and are forced not to make another joke. Georgina took the tree that belonged to the monkeys.

The monkeys are very bored in the new tree. Suddenly, they saw a dark cloud in Africa. The monkeys began warning the animals that the great rain is arriving. The animals had enough of the jokes. They arrived at Georgina trying to keep a lookout for the rain. The monkeys warned them that there is a dark cloud above her.

Nelson began warning the animals to evacuate to the blue mountain. As the rain has started, the water began rising towards Africa. The animals have built boats for safety. Suddenly, there were no leaves left to build the boats for the monkeys. All the animals (except the monkeys) have reached the mountain. The monkeys are very sad when staying on the tall tree. The monkeys hopped from boat to boat to reach the mountain. It was the happiest event that the animals ever had.

Moral Ending
We learned that the monkeys never played jokes while staying on the mountain. Lucy decided not to play another joke on everyone.
