In the middle of the Pacific Ocean, there were two islands. On each island, there were chimpanzees who wore bow ties.
On the big island, the chimps wore red and black bow ties. On the smaller island, the chimps wore blue and green bow ties.

The chimps lived on the two islands for many generations, but they had never met one another.
So, the chimps on the large island thought red and black were the only bow ties. Chimps on the small island thought blue and green were the only bow ties.

On the big island, the chimps lived in a large city called Monkey City. Monkey City was built in the center of the island because it protected them from bad weather and the ocean.

On the small island, the chimps lived in a small town called Bananaville. Unlike the big island, this island was too small for the growing Bananaville town. Therefore, most of Bananaville and their homes were built in the trees near the shore.




5
In Bananaville, there was a chimp named Ralph. Just like the rest of the chimps in Bananaville, Ralph came from a family of mainly blue bow tie chimps. Ralph's friends, Michael and Sam had green bow ties. They lived a peaceful life in Bananaville until one day...






6
...a gigantic, terrible storm came along. Ralph saw the storm on the horizon and warned everyone in Bananaville. All of the chimps ran into the forest for protection hoping the storm would pass.
7
Even though Ralph warned everyone before the storm came ashore, it was too powerful for Bananaville to survive. Bananaville was destroyed and most of the chimps got lost in the storm. Ralph and his friends survived but he lost his family that day. The chaotic storm left the remaining chimps homeless and in desperate need of a new home.
8
















With no food to eat, the chimps gathered to make a plan in order to restore Bananaville. Instead, the chimps could not agree on a plan and started arguing with each other. Unhappy about the fighting, Ralph thought of the ultimate plan...move to the big island
