Abstract: en_US A picture just past midpoint of this book tells it all: Monkey arranges a tug-of-war with either of two crocodile cousins who patrol the river. Instead of contesting himself, he pits the two against each other. He sets the tug-of-war at a point where he can watch from a tree but neither contestant can see the other. The two crocodiles pull vigorously for a day and welcome his suggestion that they let it go until tomorrow. The next day both crocodiles give up, and since then the monkey has so great a reputation that crocodiles will form an island chain for him to hop across the river on their backs.
