There once was a lake in Nicaragua. Let’s call it Lake Nicaragua. Next to Lake Nicaragua sat a big, angry volcano named Mombacho. One day a long time ago, Mombacho got so angry at its brother, Little Mombacho, that it blew its top and sent rock and ash into poor Lake Nicaragua. In fact, there was so much rock that they formed islands in the lake – 365 of them. One of these islands became home to 4 friendly, cheeky monkeys and became known as “Monkey Island.”
