Lima eats a red hot chilli at home after school and finds it is too spicy, setting her mouth on fire. Her mother, father, aunt, and grandfather all try to help by giving her food and drinks to cool her mouth down, like water, ice cream, jelly, mango, and milk, but nothing works until she drinks a large jug of milk. Lima learns not to eat anything too spicy without checking with an adult first.

"Now," said Lima's Mum, "are you still hungry?"
"No," said Lima.. holding her belly. "Just a bit full!"
25. Take one liule hungry girl, six different tempting foods
and one shiny delicious red hot chilli. One big bite into
the chilli results in a spectacular display of fireworks.
Mum, dad, aunt and grandad all come to help but
Lima's mouth is still too hot. Who can rescue her?
