Synopsis

A young banana likes being part of a bunch, but he's growing up and it's time to head off to school. Only he's afraid to go alone, and he'll do anything to stop the narrator from making him go. That is...until he's shown all the fun things he'll miss out on if he doesn't go to school.

Funny and absurd, this story of one stubborn banana will ease the anxiety of any child heading off to school for the first time.

Author Insight

Humor is an anxiety-buster for kids

I wish I had a book like this before my first day of school. My separation anxiety was so severe that I stood outside the classroom for over two hours before I finally entered. But then there was the class photo and that was a bridge too far! :) I wrote this book for children who may experience the same feelings of fear with the unknown. And perhaps the transition would have been easier for me (and my parents!) if I saw all the fun this banana was going miss out on. (By the way, I eventually I took that class photo, though only by hiding in the corner!)
