Summary

In this hilarious bedtime story, a monster is licking his lips . . . maybe he's thinking about eating a bedtime snack? And what if that snack just happened to be you? Gulp! He's getting closer and closer . . . and his tummy is rumbling really loudly. But all this monster actually wants is a sloppy monster-sized goodnight kiss!

Table of Contents

Praise for Banana!:

“With big, bold spreads and only two words (“Banana” and “Please”), Vere’s (The Getaway) story about sharing packs impressive graphic force.” —Publishers Weekly

“A lively title to share in a toddler storytime.” —The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books

“A fun choice for sharing with a group.” —School Library Journal

“Minimalist text gains expression through varied punctuation and typeface, while speech balloons and other comic-book conventions (not to mention one spectacular simian tantrum) evoke a certain pigeon. Bold, expressive colors and exuberant lines characterize the artwork.” —Kirkus Reviews
