Résumé : "The Story of Dago" by Annie F. Johnston is a captivating tale narrated by Dago, a ring-tailed monkey with a penchant for mischief. The story unfolds as Dago recounts his adventures to a mirror-monkey, reflecting on his life from the jungles to his time in a circus, and finally to his life with the Tremont family. Dago's journey begins with his capture and subsequent sale to a circus, where he endures harsh training. Eventually, he finds solace in a zoological garden before being gifted to the Tremont children by their grandfather. The narrative is rich with Dago's escapades, including his interactions with the children, Stuart and Phil, and their great-aunt Patricia, who is less than fond of him. Dago's antics, such as accidentally causing chaos in the house and his involvement in a mock funeral for another monkey, Matches, highlight his mischievous nature. Despite the trouble he causes, Dago becomes an integral part of the children's lives, offering them comfort and companionship. The story also touches on themes of empathy and understanding, as the children navigate their grief and the challenges of growing up. Through Dago's eyes, readers experience a blend of humor, adventure, and the complexities of human-animal relationships.
