CHAPTER -2 (The Adventures of Toto)
(Supplementary Reader book Moments)
Question 1:
How does Toto come to grandfather’s private zoo?
ANSWER:
Grandfather bought Toto from a tonga-driver for five rupees. The tonga-driver kept
the monkey tied to a feeding-trough. It looked so out of place there that grandfather
decided he would add it to his private zoo.
Question 2:
“Toto was a pretty monkey.” In what sense is Toto pretty?
ANSWER:
Toto was pretty in its features. Its bright eyes sparkled with mischief beneath deep-
set eyebrows. Its teeth, which were pearl white, were very often displayed in a smile
that frightened the life out of elderly Anglo-Indian ladies. Its fingers were quick and
wicked and its tail, while adding to its good looks, served as a third hand.
