In the heart of the Indian jungle, there lived a wise old elephant named Raj. Raj had big floppy ears and a kind, wrinkled face. One day, Raj spotted a little monkey named Mita up on a tree. 'Hello there, Mita! What seems to be bothering you?' Raj asked.

'Oh, Raj! I've lost my favorite banana! It was my only food for today,' cried Mita. Raj thought for a moment and called out, 'Listen up, my friends!' All the animals gathered around. 'Let's find Mita's lost banana. Spread out and search, with empathy in your hearts!' exclaimed Raj.

In the deep green forest, the animals searched high and low. The mischievous squirrel, Chirpy, spotted something yellow near a waterfall. 'Hey guys, I found a yellow thing! Is this Mita's banana?' Chirpy asked excitedly. 'No, Chirpy. That's just a yellow leaf,' replied Raj.

After hours of searching, it was the clever snake, Slinky, who found the lost banana hidden inside a giant mushroom. 'Hooray! I found it!' yelled Slinky. The animals cheered with joy and rushed back to Mita to deliver the good news. Mita's eyes sparkled with happiness.

Mita thanked everyone for their help and shared her banana with all the animals. Raj smiled and said, 'Remember, my friends, when someone is sad or in need, we can help by showing empathy. Together, we make the jungle a caring and wonderful place!' And with that, they all lived happily ever after.
