A Monkey’s First Banana
Chief Wiggles posts a new story of his visit to a US elementary school to receive toys for kids in Iraq.
My favorite quote:
At one point, as I tried to help the students understand what it might feel like for the Iraqi children to get their very first toy, I asked the question, and the following response caused me to laugh with astonishment. In the Kindergarten class, Colonel Long’s own son responded by saying, “I am sure it would be like a monkey getting his very first banana?” How true.
If you haven’t ever checked out his site, or Operation Give, you really should. The Chief is an Army National Guard officer from Utah who started a charity while in Iraq to give toys and school supplies to Iraqi children.
