Mwana, a joyous and active 7-year-old, loves to play her brown drum at the bustling market in Lusaka. However, when she encounters a mysterious illness affecting her friends and family, Mwana must find a way to help. Will honesty and courage guide her through the challenges?
It was a bright summer day in Lusaka. Mwana, with her pink knitted sweater and blue shorts, played her brown drum in the open market. Her fluffy dog, Fido, danced joyfully beside her. But something was wrong. People were coughing and looking very tired. Mwana decided she needed to find out what was happening.
Mwana asked her mother about the coughing. Her mother looked worried and said, - Many people are getting sick, Mwana. It's called tuberculosis. Mwana felt a knot in her stomach. She wanted to help, but how?
Mwana decided to ask the wise old market vendor, Mr. Mwale. - Mr. Mwale, how can we help the people who are sick? - Mwana, we need to make sure everyone gets medicine and rest. But some are too afraid to admit they are sick. Mwana knew she had to find a way to encourage honesty.
Mwana gathered her friends, but they were afraid. - What if we get in trouble for being sick? one asked. - We must be honest! Mwana insisted. But fear still held them back. Mwana felt frustrated. She needed a new plan.
Mwana and Fido went to the village elder, Mrs. Chanda. - Mrs. Chanda, people are scared to admit they are sick. - Mwana, sometimes a song can bring courage. Mwana's eyes lit up. She knew just what to do.
Mwana returned to the market with her drum. - Listen, everyone! she called out. She began to play a new song, singing about honesty and courage. Fido danced cheerfully, drawing everyone's attention. Slowly, people began to join in.
As the song spread, more people came forward. - I feel sick too, someone admitted. - Me too, said another. Mwana's heart filled with hope. The community was starting to be honest about their illness.
With honesty, people started to get the help they needed. Medicines were shared, and the community grew stronger. Mwana and Fido continued to play their drum, spreading joy and courage. - Thank you, Mwana, for your honesty, said Mr. Mwale. Mwana smiled, knowing she had made a difference.
