How does Toto take a bath? Where has he learnt to do this? How does Toto almost boil himself alive? |

Answer» Toto takes bath in a tub of warm water. He would first test the temperature, then gradually step into the bath. Then he would apply soap and rub himself all over. When the water became cold, he would run to the kitchen- fire in order to dry himself. As monkeys are good at aping others, Toto learnt proper steps of bathing by watching the narrator doing the same. Once having tasted the warmth of water in the kettle, he got in, with his head sticking out from the open kettle. The water began to boil. Probably he was not intelligent enough to understand the risk of boiling water so he popped his head up and down in the kettle until grandmother arrived and hauled him out of the kettle. This is how Toto nearly succeeded in boiling himself alive. |
