Description
A man is working exhaustively on chopping down a great kapok tree, deep in the Brazilian rain forest. He lays his ax aside and takes a nap. While he sleeps, the animals who make their home in the tree plead with the man to not destroy their world.
One by one, snakes, bees, monkeys, birds, frogs, and even a jaguar emerge from the jungle canopy to plead with the sleeping ax-man to spare their home. When the man awakens, startled at all the rare and marvelous animals surrounding him, he picks up his ax as if to begin chopping again, then drops it and walks away, presumably never to return.
