Mealies and beans

Price range: R0.00 through R160.00

This is the third story about the cool Nguni calf named Gaps. This time, Gaps and his cousin Sugarbean want to grow mealies and beans for the Farmers’ Show. Will they win the prize for the best crop? Gaps’s real name is ‘Gaps Between the Branches’. This is because it looks like he is sitting in the shade of a tree, and the sun is making shadows on his hide. Sugarbean’s name is ‘Sugarbean’ because her hide looks like speckled sugar beans.

Author Information

Sisters Maryanne and Shayle Bester have cooked up nine picture books together, all published by Jacana. Some of these feature Gaps, the Nguni calf, and his extended family. Others, like Three Friends and a Taxi, are light-hearted contemporary tales. Three Friends and a Taxi was a winner of the 2004 Sappi Isiqalo Book Competition and The Cool Nguni was one of the winners of the Exclusive Books IBBY SA Awards. The sisters grew up on a Free State farm but now live in Gauteng with an assortment of family and animals. All their stories draw on their deep affection for the people, places and eccentricities of Africa.
