Banana and tomato may be different in many ways: they provide different nutrients; they’re grown, harvested and prepared in different ways, they have unique shapes and exteriors. But regardless of their differences, they’re two of Ethiopia’s favorite fruits, and they’re friends forever.

Profits from book sales are used to create, print, and distribute more Ready Set Go Books to kids in Ethiopia, Africa’s second most populous country. Ethiopia’s population is 44% children, ages 0-14 (43 million out of 97 million total). Only 5.5% of children attend pre-school or kindergarten, and the adult literacy rate is 49%.
