“Oh! Thank you, Banana Pie! How thoughtful of you!
“Speaking of bananas… have you ever heard the story about why bananas grow in bunches?
“It is said that the first banana grew all alone at the very top of its tree. It had no company except for its neighbors, the coconuts– as well as the occasional visiting bird. But the coconuts were awfully nutty, and the birds were terribly flighty, so none of them really got along with the banana. One day, feeling very sad, the banana wished it could find friends with more in common. The Earth Spirit heard the lonely banana’s wish, and decided to grant it. So now, bananas always grow alongside bunches and bunches of friends!
“In a way, I think that makes the banana a perfect gift of friendship, don’t you?”
