Ama’s Mango Tree
This book belongs to:

Ama lived in a small village in Ghana. Next to her house stood a big mango tree.

1

One sunny morning, Ama saw that the mangoes were ripe. They were yellow and orange, and they smelled sweet. She picked a whole basket.

2

“I cannot eat all of these,” said Ama. So she shared them. She gave one to Grandma Esi, one to her friend Kwame and one to the baker.

3

That evening, Kwame came back with a bowl of groundnuts. Grandma Esi sang a happy song. The baker brought warm bread.

Ama smiled. “Sharing makes everything taste better!”
