Book Synopsis

A joyous read-aloud and laugh-out-loud rhyming romp with hidden pink bananas to spot on every spread. Brought to life by perfect pairing, Suzy Senior and Josh Cleland!

Bernardo is on the hunt for some fun. And what could be better than a BANANA HUNT?! Hidden under rocks and tucked in socks, Bernardo stashes bananas EVERYWHERE, ready for his Auntie Dot to find. She searches the rainforest high and low for EVERY banana. But before long, they realise that Bernardo has hidden a few too many! After lots of squishy, icky banana chaos, an exhausted Auntie Dot and Bernardo slowly head back. Except what is THAT up ahead on the track?

Can Bernardo save them from the grizzly bear? Perhaps too many bananas could be helpful after all . . .

Suzy’s fun, hilarious story with Josh’s bright, expressive illustrations will have all children (and grown-ups) going BANANAS! The ideal book to share and laugh together. Perfect for fans of Octopants, When Cucumber Lost His Cool, Oi Frog! and I Really, Really Need a Wee.

Our Review Panel says...

Banana Hunt is the story of Bernado, a monkey, who is in search of some fun so decides to hide bananas all over the island ready for his Auntie Dot to find. But there are some issues along the way with the bananas and they also encounter a bear to add more drama to the story.

Young children will find this rhyming story funny and engaging through the story and the illustrations. An extra feature of the book includes trying to spot the hidden pink banana on each page.
