The children of Tanoso are looking forward to a very exciting Christmas party. Their mothers are busy preparing lots of goodies for the party. The only snag is that the dry Harmattan wind gets worse every day. It does not show any sign of going away before Christmas day. A worried Jeneba goes searching for the Harmattan man to persuade him to stay away on the day set for the party so they can have good weather and enjoy the party. Does she find the Harmattan-man? Does he agree to go away on the day set for the party?
