Description
Whenever Rosa had a bellyache, she would feel better after her mother, Ena, gave her juice made from sweet Paw-Paw fruit that grew in a patch in front of their house in Barbados. But when a wicked obeah woman casts a spell that causes all of the island's Paw-Paw trees to die, Rosa's mother falls ill and is rushed to the hospital. Certain only Paw-Paw juice can heal her mother, Rosa sets out to grow a Paw-Paw tree with the power of her magical song. Set in Barbados, Rosa's Paw-Paw Tree weaves fantasy, island history, and a family's traditions, with an inspiring tale about a daughter's deep love for her mother. Rosa's Paw-Paw Tree includes educational illustrations featuring Plant Anatomy and Development.
