Hello and welcome to super great kids' stories, wise tales from storytellers around the

world which will make you laugh and sometimes cry.

Recommended for ages 5 to 105. I'm Kim and I love stories.

Hello super great kids and how are you? I hope you're enjoying the sunshine.

Are your school holidays just around the corner or maybe they've already begun?

I'm rather pleased because it's properly warm now in London and I've been able to go to the sea

Our theme is nature and growing things and the story this week which is from Mexico is called

have big curly horns and chilies are the spicy hot vegetables which a Nancy would have used to

make his hot pepper soup. They're really quite easy to grow. Before we begin the story,

Things to eat like chilies or lettuce or strawberries. Now there's a challenge.

Think about what food you would grow in your vegetable garden while we have a quick word with the grown ups.
