Episode 1: Mama’s Hard Work In a small town, there lived a woman named Amina. She was a single mom. She had a little boy named Kola who was 7 years old. Amina loved Kola very much. She wanted to give him a good life. But life was not easy for Amina. She worked very hard every day. She cleaned houses and sold food in the market. Sometimes, she was very tired, but she never gave up. She wanted Kola to go to school and be happy. Kola saw how hard his mother worked. He wanted to help her, but he was still small. Sometimes, Kola felt lonely because his mother was busy. But Amina always told him, “We will be okay. We must keep trying.” One day, Kola’s school asked for money to buy books. Amina did not have enough money. She felt sad but told Kola, “Don’t worry, my son. I will find a way.” That night, Amina stayed up late thinking. She decided to make small food to sell near the school. She woke up early the next day and cooked tasty snacks. She sold them to the children and teachers. Slowly, she earned enough money to buy Kola’s books. Kola was very happy. He hugged his mother and said, “Thank you, Mama. You are the best.” Amina smiled and said, “We are strong together.”
