What is Avocado asks 'what am I?' about?

Avocado is perfectly happy in the supermarket until a child asks whether an avocado is a fruit or a vegetable. Suddenly, Avocado needs to know: where does he belong? He asks the fruits and vegetables, but none of them can provide a simple answer. Along the way, Avocado meets Tomato, who helps him see that being difficult to classify does not make him any less special. A funny, thoughtful story about identity, belonging and feeling comfortable in your own skin.
