Fruit Bowl
Fruit Bowl | Mark Hoffmann
3 posts | 5 read | 1 to read
Who belongs in the fruit bowl? Apples, check. Blueberries, check. Tomato, che-- Wait, what?! Tomato wants to join the other fruits, but does he belong? The perfect mix of botany and a bunch of bananas! All the fruit are in the bowl. There's Apple and Orange. Strawberry and Peach. Plum and Pear. And, of course, Tomato. Now wait just a minute! Tomatoes aren't fruit! Or are they? Using sly science (and some wisdom from a wise old raisin), Tomato proves all the fruit wrong and shows that he belongs in the bowl just as much as the next blueberry! And he's bringing some unexpected friends too! "A fun, brain-teasing food literacy lesson that's a cornucopia of produce and wordplay."--Publishers Weekly, starred review "An a-peel-ing addition."--School Library Journal

An oldie but a goodie. Nominated for the 2018 #WCCPBA, Fruit Bowl showed up in my book fair. I read it #outloud to my youngest students, who were barely blips when I read it to the whole school in 2017. It's weird when I think I just read a book and then realize those kids aren't even kids anymore. 😳 But seriously, are you aware of all the vegetable imposters out there?
