Handa's Surprise Save 20% on selected books and resources for schools by Eileen Browne (author)

Handa puts seven different fruits in a basket to take to her friend Akeyo. There’s a yummy guava, a tasty banana, an orange, a mango, a pineapple, an avocado and a passion fruit. But her walk takes her past lots of cheeky animals who have their eyes on the yummy fruit… and when Handa finally takes the basket off her head to present the fruits to Akeyo, she gets the biggest surprise of her life! Featuring children from the Luo tribe of South West Kenya, this funny and warm-hearted book perfectly captures the rhythms of Kenyan village life.

Also available: Read and Respond activities to accompany Handa’s Surprise.
