In honor of this very special holiday, I bring you TWO fabulously funny (companion) picture books about bananas! Here is a little bit about the first:
Banana is excited about the prospects of being the star of a fruit counting book, but as more animals are added for the sake of the rhyme, he wonders if it will ever be his turn. Readers will love the comedy that ensues when Banana becomes less patient and more argumentative with the narrator. Elstrela Lourenço’s bright, expressive illustrations perfectly capture Banana’s lively personality, and Carrie Tillotson’s humorous text will keep kids begging you to turn the page. Highly recommend! Read this review on Goodreads and Amazon. And, here’s a little about the follow-up book:
Banana is back in this bedtime book, but he does NOT want to go to bed! He keeps changing the ABCs to reflect “awake” activities, hoping to avoid going to sleep. Comical hijinks follow as Banana and the narrator argue their way through the alphabet. I love this sequel as much as the first, from the colorful and expressive art to the humorous antics and banana puns. Both Banana books by Carrie Tillotson and Estrela Lourenço belong on every kid’s bookshelf!
