The Last Piece of Chicken
Ifemade, a curious six-year-old, embarks on an adventure in his vibrant African village to solve the mystery of the missing last piece of chicken from the family dinner. Facing challenges and learning the importance of honesty along the way, Ifemade discovers a surprising truth about friendship and sharing.
Ifemade's family gathered for a delicious dinner. His mother cooked a special chicken dish. But, oh no! The last piece of chicken was missing. Everyone looked around, puzzled. Ifemade was curious. Who could have taken it?
- I didn't take it, Ifemade said. - Me neither, his sister replied. Ifemade decided to find the missing chicken. He wanted to solve the mystery. His parents smiled, "Good luck, little detective."
Ifemade first checked the kitchen. The pots and pans were clean. There was no sign of chicken. - Oh, where could it be? he wondered aloud. His curiosity grew even more.
Ifemade decided to ask his neighbors. He went to see his friend, Binta. - Did you see a piece of chicken? he asked eagerly. Binta shook her head. But she joined the search, feeling excited.
They searched the garden next. Maybe an animal took it? They looked under bushes and trees. But no chicken was found. - This is harder than I thought, Ifemade sighed.
Ifemade felt a bit sad. - Maybe we won't find it, he told Binta. Binta tried to cheer him up. - Let's keep trying, she said. They didn't want to give up yet.
They heard a sound from the chicken coop. Could it be a clue? Ifemade rushed over. But it was just the chickens clucking. - Oh no, I thought we had it, Ifemade said.
- I should just give up, Ifemade thought. He sat down, feeling defeated. Binta sat beside him. - It's okay, she said, - We tried our best.
Suddenly, Grandma walked by. - What's wrong, little ones? she asked kindly. Ifemade explained their search. Grandma smiled. - Sometimes, the truth is right in front of us, she said.
Ifemade realized something. He remembered he had put the last piece in his pocket to save for later! - I forgot! he laughed. Everyone chuckled, and Ifemade learned honesty is the best policy.
