My Brother Is an Avocado

Author: Tracy DarntonIllustrator: Yasmeen Ismail

Exploring a baby’s growth from conception until birth, this witty story explores shifting emotions as the baby goes from being the size of a bean to the size of a watermelon. Comparisons are taken literally as the protagonist wonders if the baby will be a jumping or a runner bean. Imaginative, expressive illustrations make for great discussions.
