The Golden Yam of Friendship

The Golden Yam of Friendship is a delightful and thought-provoking early literacy storybook about five friends — Sally the sparrow, Bobby the bumblebee, Yosef the dragonfly, Yazmin the bat, and Yuri the butterfly — who stumble upon a gleaming golden yam in a sunny yard. When there is barely enough to go around, they face a moment of choice: compete, or share. Choosing kindness over selfishness, they split the last piece — and discover that friendship makes even the smallest portion feel like a feast.
