A hilarious, mostly-rhyming picture book about a banana and narrator who can' t quite agree on what their book is about. Perfect for fans of Mo Willems' We Are in a Book and Adam Rex' s Nothing Rhymes With Orange!"Mo Willems fans will give this book one, two, three, four, five stars!" --Parents"Tillotson' s rib-tickling debut is not to be missed!"--KirkusWhen a narrator starts filling this story with fruit, Banana can' t wait to step into the spotlight. The book is called Counting to Bananas, after all. But as more and more fruits (and non-fruits) are added to the story, Banana objects. When will it be time for bananas? !With laugh-out-loud text from debut author Carrie Tillotson and brought to life by illustrator Estrela Louren o this is the story of a banana and narrator who have very strong opinions about what should (and should not!) be in this book. The perfect next read for fans of Jory John and Pete Oswald' s The Bad Seed series!Praise for Counting to Bananas-"In the tradition of Mac Barnett' s Count the Monkeys, Tillotson' s rib-tickling debut is not to be missed . . . Louren o' s digitally created illustrations of cartoon fruit with faces and expressive animals are bright, dynamic, and foolish. Fruity fun for everyone. " --Kirkus

Before Carrie Tillotson started writing children' s books, she worked as a biostatistician. Her job involved counting a lot of numbers (but not many bananas). Counting to Bananas is her debut picture book. She lives in Oregon with her family, two dogs, and two chickens. Although bananas are not her favourite fruit, she loves a warm slice of banana bread.
