Python has wrapped himself around the melon/mango/pomegranate tree with its delicious fruit, and he won’t share the fruit unless the animals can tell him the correct name of the tree. Elephant, Monkey and Zebra each in turn visit Lion, who alone knows the name of the tree. But every time, the animals forget the name on the journey back to the tree. Then Tortoise, the slowest, smallest animal goes to Lion – and sings a special song to remind him of the name. It is the Bojabi Tree! Python unwraps himself from the trunk, and all the animals share a feast.

It was nice reading a story from another country, so I can learn more about the world. I liked the story and think some of my friends will too.

I liked it because they had to remember the name of the tree.

Such a fun book with silly animals. The lion king was very helpful and kept helping them and by singing the special song the animals remembered the name of the special tree and enjoyed the fruits.

I loved this book! It was soooo funny. The Lion and the Elephant are my favourites. The Elephant forgot the name of the tree and said 'UMFANI'. Very funny. Yes, I would recommend this book to my friend.
