Mama Zuri's Stolen Porridge

After a long journey through the forest, three tired brothers find shelter in the welcoming home of kind Mama Zuri. That night, hungry seven-year-old Amari secretly eats her millet porridge and adds water to the pot to hide what he has done. When Mama Zuri discovers the truth, she responds with patience and wisdom instead of anger.

With help from his brothers, Amari learns to take responsibility, repair the harm he caused and keep his promise. Mama Zuri's Missing Porridge is a warm African children's story about honesty, self-control, forgiveness, hard work and the courage to make things right after making a mistake.
