Summary
It is a story about Max the Monkey! Max loves to play outside with his friends in the jungle. He swings from trees, chases butterflies, and has the best adventures. But one day, Max started to feel yucky. He had a runny nose and a sore throat. He didn't feel like playing anymore and just wanted to rest. His mom took care of him, but Max wondered, What happened to him? A wise old owl came to visit Max.Max explained how he was feeling, and the owl listened carefully. The owl explained, "Germs are tiny bugs that can make us sick. They're too small to see, but they're everywhere! They can be on doorknobs, toys, and even on our hands." Max's eyes widened with surprise. The owl continued, "Germs can spread when we touch things that have germs on them, like doorknobs or toys, and then touch our faces." Max thought about all the things he touched before getting sick. But the owl had good news: "There's a magic way to keep germs away: washing our hands with soap and water!" Max was curious about this magic. Max went to the sink and washed his hands with soap and water. He rubbed his hands together to make lots of bubbles and rinsed them thoroughly. After washing, Max felt cleaner and fresher. As the days passed, Max started to feel better. He was strong and healthy again, thanks to washing his hands regularly. Max was happy to play outside with his friends once more.
