One day, Anansi the spider picked some fat and tasty yams from his garden. He baked
them with care, and the yams came out smelling delicious. He could not wait to sit down
1 and eat them.

Just then, there was a knock at his door. It was Turtle. Turtle had been traveling all day
and was very tired and hungry.

 "Hello, Anansi," said Turtle. "I have been walking for so long. As I came near your
home, I smelled the most delicious yams I've ever smelled. Would you be so kind as to

at mealtime. But he was not very happy. Anansi was a little too greedy and wanted the
