Description
One bite too many… and a big lesson learnt.
When the animals come together to store food for all, clever Timi the Tortoise discovers a magical sky rope that lifts their stash far out of reach. But night after night, Timi returns—taking more than his share—until the others begin to notice the food is vanishing…
What happens when one tortoise’s actions threaten the balance of the whole community?
Told with warmth and rhythm inspired by African oral tradition, A Bite Too Many is a playful and powerful tale about sharing, fairness, community, and the consequences of taking more than you need.
