What does the Pageticker team say about One Banana, Two Bananas?
We love the way this lively counting book combines a catchy rhyme with wonderfully silly scenes, from bananas in pyjamas to llamas and banana boats. The bright, energetic illustrations give children plenty to spot and count, while the repeated rhythm makes it especially good for reading aloud and joining in. It is best suited to pre-school and early-years children; the playful nonsense will encourage repeated readings, which grown-ups should be prepared for.
