Description
Mandy is a banana. A yellow, bendy, half-moon-shaped banana.
The problem is, Mandy doesn't want to be a banana. She would rather be a prickly pineapple like Pedro, a round watermelon like Wilhelmina, or - frankly - ANYTHING other than a banana.
It takes a plucky little blueberry called Blip to help Mandy focus on her 'haves' rather than her 'have-nots' and to celebrate what makes her so unique, so bendy, so brilliant and so absolutely, utterly . . . BANANA!
A quirky celebration of learning to love the skin you're in, featuring an all-star cast of fruit-bowl friends. Heartwarming and funny in equal measure, Mandy is Still a Banana is guaranteed to be a hit with little ones and adults alike.
