Banana!

Take one mischievous monkey, a cast of adorable animals, and bunches of bananas to make them trip, slip, and drop. What have you got? Add just one word of text and energetic, kinetic pictures in jungle-bright colors and even very young kids will quickly be able to enjoy this antic tale all by themselves. No one will resist joining in the refrain…BANANA! Jonathan Allen has created many wonderful picture books. His international success is based on his observant wit, appealing art, and child-like sense of fun. I'm Not Cute! (Boxer Books, UK, and Hyperion, USA) was auctioned between 15 U.S. publishers in 2004.
