The story explores a centipede's challenges as she lays eggs and cares for her hatchlings. Despite laying 150 eggs, only 10 hatch, but fortunately, they are all healthy and each possesses 4 pairs of feet. A particular challenge arises when one hatchling, a small centipede who enjoys sleeping, grows daily, with each growth spurt adding a new pair of feet. This leads to the unfortunate realization that the centipede lacks sufficient shoes for her numerous children, necessitating a new purchase. The narrative highlights themes of nurturing, growth, and the practical difficulties that can arise in managing a large family. The book's creation was supported by the All Children Reading: A Grand Challenge for Development (ACR GCD) Partners, including USAID, World Vision, and the Australian Government.","The Centipede’s Problem  \nAuthor: Asmaa Emara Illustrator: Noreen Khan  \nEnglish  \nThe Centipede’s Problem  \nWritten by Asmaa Emara.  \nImages by Nooren Khan. © Asafeer Education Technologies FZ LLC, 2018.
