Noko, the porcupine, is very hungry.

On arriving at a village, he asks the  other animals for some food and shelter. But, despite their full bellies, all the  animals say they have nothing to spare. Never mind: he’ll just have to make  do and cook a pot of soup from the quills off his back - a soup so tasty even  the king likes it.

Once the villagers hear of his plan they offer just enough  ingredients to make a soup worthy of them all…    

This African version of Stone Soup celebrates generosity and kindness - and  the message that we can all benefit if we share our resources.
