Description/Notes
CA 2012 USDA Approved NE Materials HOTM (Tangerines, Tangelos, Mandarins) An unpretentious coconut that teaches a cornucopia of ignorant fruits to look beyond their differences, and together, they discover the beauty in diversity. In this sweet story inspired by the author's childhood and imbued with Filipino cultural nuances, a coconut named, Ambrosia is not accepted by the other fruits until one brave peach breaks the ice and leads the way to celebrating Ambrosia's differences. Fostering important values of diversity, tolerance, and positive self-esteem, this poetic, rhyming introduction to appreciating other cultures teaches the acceptance of others, even if they are different.
