TOTO
Toto, a mischievous baby monkey, is one of the main characters of the story 'The Aventures of Toto' written by Ruskin Bond. Toto is a little red monkey with bright eyes, sparkled with mischief beneath deep set eyebrows and his pearly-white teeth. His smile was too scary to make old ladies afraid. He had hands that looked dried-up, his fingers were quick and wicked and his tail served him as a third hand. Toto received Grandfather's sympathy and empathy as he was tied to a feeding-trough by the tonga driver from whom he was bought, where he seemed to be a fish out of water due to which Grandfather bought him for the sum of five-rupees. Toto is considered intelligent as he could have escaped from the window by tying the torn pieces of the narrator's blazer into a rope. Toto is a very troublesome and annoying monkey as he didn't let any of his companions to sleep at night at Grandfather's private zoo and he also troubled Nana, the family's pet donkey. Toto loves bathing in warm water in cold winter evenings. During his performance, if anyone laughed at him, his feelings would be hurt and he would refuse to go on bathing which shows his sensitive and shy behaviour. Toto is very notorious and destructive as he was responsible for frequent loss of dishes, clothes, curtains and wallpaper. He seemed to be very greedy too as he wanted to pounce on everything he wanted to eat. He is a good imitator as he copied the narrator and his acts. At last, he was sold to the same tonga driver from whom he was bought, which reveals that he is imperfect to be kept as a pet. In a nutshell, Toto is a playful, restless, naughty and curious monkey. Mischievousness is the prime reason that made him difficult to keep as a pet, still his adventures are humourous and makes the reader laugh all the time.

Explanation:
The author’s grandfather was a great lover of animals. He had made a zoo at home in which he would keep animals and gave them a lot of care. In his zoo, one could see a tortoise, a pair of rabbits, a tame squirrel and pet goats. One day he saw a pretty monkey. The monkey was a pet animal of a tonga driver. The tonga driver used to keep the red monkey tied with the feeding trough but it looked extremely tragic there. When the grandfather saw the monkey, he was so fascinated that he purchased the monkey from the tonga driver for five rupees. However, Toto’s presence was not revealed at home because the grandmother disliked the new arrival of animals at home. Toto was extremely insidious and destructive. When the writer and his grandfather concealed Toto in a closet and fixing him to a peg, he broke the peg, tore wallpapers and author’s blazer and caused ruin in the room. The following day, when he was kept in the servant’s room with different other animals, he didn’t give them a chance to rest throughout the night. In this way, he never let other animals live in harmony with the other pets. He proved to be an expensive deal.One day the grandfather had to go to Saharanpur for work, he chose to take the monkey along with him. He took Toto in a solid bag made of canvas and shut the zip pleasantly so that Toto couldn’t get away. Toto made unsuccessful attempts to escape from the bag, which made the bag bounce and roll. This excited the interest of individual travellers at the railway station. At the Saharanpur railway station when grandfather was getting his ticket checked, Toto looked out of the bag and grinned at the ticket collector. As the ticket collector proclaimed that it was a dog, grandfather needed to purchase a fare ticket for 3 rupees for him.When at last grandmother came to know about Toto, he acknowledged him, it was given a place in the stable along with the donkey Nana. Toto did not coexist with Nana. The night Toto passed with Nana was full of disturbance. When Grandfather visited the stable, he found Toto fastened on to Nana’s long ears with his sharp little teeth. They could never become friends.Toto would take delight in washing up in warm water in the winter season. One day, he nearly bubbled himself when he hopped into a kettle of boiling water.One evening, Toto ate the family feast of pulao. He tossed the unfilled dish from the tree and it broke it into a few pieces .Toto’s mischief developed constantly, and grandfather realized that they couldn’t afford him at home. At last, he found the same tonga driver and sold Toto back to him for an aggregate of three rupees.
