But as Akeyo wonders, I wonder what fruit Akeyo will like best? a series of sneaky animals steal something from Handa’s basket, which she’s carrying on her head … When Handa reaches Akeyo, will she have anything left to offer her friend? Richly illustrated, brimming with luscious fruit and cheeky wild animals, this mouth-watering story is for the youngest of readers. In the best pantomime spirit, children will long to tell Handa what’s happening right behind her!<br
Handa pak sewe verskillende heerlike vrugte in ’n groot grasmandjie om vir haar maatjie, Akeyo, te neem as ’n verrassing. Maar Handa se staptog deur die grasveld neem haar langs ’n paar diere verby, en die vrugte lyk darem alte aanloklik… “So sappig dat dit amper eetbaar lyk… Pragtige sketse van diere… Kinders sal baie hou van die grappie.” – Die Observer
