The beans that a young Ethiopian shepherd boy brings home are too bitter to eat, but his mother discovers that after being roasted, they make a wonderful drink. This is the world renowned story of how coffee was discovered – the Ethiopian version. This children’s book is written in simple story like English, and Amharic. The illustrations are in the traditional Ethiopian style of painting.

Amharic Kids Review
There are few truly Ethiopian books in print and available to buy. This book is truly Ethiopian – the story and the art work. This would be a great book to read for a classroom presentation on Ethiopia.
