About this book
Did you know when you go to sleep all the fruit in the bowl comes to life and has a fun-filled, night long party? The mangos love to dance, the banana DJ can do the splits, the grapes enjoy a conga line and the apples shake their pips! It is a fruit-tastic extravaganza and everyone is invited - so don't be shy, join in and let's get this party started!
This exquisite book is an instant classic. Filled to the brim with great characters, brought to life with just a few lines of text, and perfectly matched with hilarious, colourful illustrations that are bursting with life. Each page brings a smile to your face and the repetitive chorus will ensure even small children will be able to join in the sing-a-long fun. Highly recommended, this is one of the finest and funniest young children's books in years.
